In 2016 we published a briefing paper on Local Area Coordination which draws on the strengths, skills and abilities of local individuals, families and communities to support people with disabilities.

• increased community and family capacity;
• increased supportive relationships/circles of support;
• reduced demand for services, improved access to relevant and timely information and cost savings
