Show Notes

Over summer, we’re revisiting some of our favourite GET REAL episodes of 2020. 

People living with disabilities and mental health conditions are over-represented in the justice system, something we at ermha365 see in our work every day. 

In this, one of our most popular episodes, we ask why this happens, and talk about how we amplified these issues by taking them to the Royal Commission on Violence, Abuse, Neglect and Discrimination against People with Disabilities.
