What are Human rights?

Human rights are the basic freedoms and protections that belong to every person—regardless of their age, gender, culture, ability, or background. These rights ensure that every individual is treated with dignity, fairness, equality, and respect.

Human rights include:

The right to live free from discrimination

The right to make choices about your own life

The right to education, health care, housing, and work

The right to participate in your community

The right to privacy and personal safety

These rights are protected by international treaties, national laws, and state-based legislation—such as the United Nations Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (UNCRPD), the Disability Discrimination Act 1992 (Cth), and the Equal Opportunity Act 1984 (WA).

Why It’s Important to Protect the Rights of People with Disabilities

People with disabilities have historically faced significant discrimination, exclusion, and inequality. Protecting their rights is not just a legal obligation—it is a moral and social responsibility.

1. To Promote Inclusion and Participation

Protecting rights helps ensure that people with disabilities can access the same opportunities as everyone else—whether it's going to school, working, or joining community events.

2. To Prevent Abuse, Neglect, and Discrimination

Strong human rights protections help prevent mistreatment and ensure there are systems in place to respond to abuse or neglect. Everyone has the right to feel safe and valued.

3. To Support Autonomy and Choice

People with disabilities should be supported to make their own decisions, live independently, and have control over their own lives. Respecting their rights reinforces their freedom to choose.

4. To Create a More Just and Fair Society

A society that respects and upholds the rights of people with disabilities is one that values diversity, equity, and human dignity for all.

5. To Comply with National and International Obligations

Governments, service providers, and communities have a legal and ethical obligation to uphold human rights through inclusive laws, policies, and everyday practices.

What Is Autism?

Autism is a developmental condition that affects how individuals perceive and interact with the world around them. It can influence communication, social skills, and behaviour in both young people and adults. Those with autism may experience challenges in understanding social cues or forming relationships, but they also possess unique strengths and perspectives.

Health professionals used to think that Asperger’s Syndrome and Autism were separate conditions. It is now understood that they are both part of one condition, called autism spectrum disorder or ASD.

The main symptoms related to ASD fall into 2 broad areas:

Difficulty with social interactions and communication

Restricted and repetitive behaviours and interests

The features of ASD usually start in infancy, but they may not be noticeable until the age of 18 months or older. Sometimes ASD is only noticed much later in life.

Children:

For young children with ASD, signs of social difficulties may include:

Lack of social exchanges such as pointing or showing you things

Signs of behavioural difficulties in young children may include:

Excessively following routines and displaying distress at changes

Repetitive movements, such as flapping hands, rocking or spinning

Strongly reacting to sensory input, such as loud sounds or at crowded places

Narrow range of interests, such as only playing with certain toys

Challenges with toilet training

There may be different signs of autism at different ages. In older children with ASD, signs may include:

Trouble understanding body language and social cues

Following instructions very strictly

Difficulty making friends

Narrow range of interests, such as only talking about certain topics

Sensory challenges such as a heightened or reduced sense of touch, sound or vision

Adults:

In adults, ASD symptoms may include:

Extreme sensitivity to the environment, such as noises or lights

Feeling isolated, such as among friends or co-workers

Interpreting words and concepts literally

Extreme attention to detail

Anxiety in social situations and having trouble making conversation

What Is Family and Domestic Violence?

Family and domestic violence doesn't have to be physical. Any behaviour that is violent, threatening, controlling, or aims to make you or your family feel afraid and unsafe can be considered family and domestic violence.

Family and domestic violence is an ongoing pattern of behaviour used to coerce, control, or create fear for another person within a family or intimate relationship. It does not have to be physical, to be family and domestic violence. 

Family and domestic violence can affect anyone regardless of age, gender, religion, sexuality, social background, or culture. The abuse is never the victim-survivor's fault.

It can include:

Physical violence

Sexual violence

Financial abuse

Stalking and Harassment

Isolation

Emotional and Psychological Abuse

Spiritual abuse

Honour-based violence.

Family and domestic violence can happen to anyone, and it is never the victim-survivor’s fault. It can occur in: 

Past or current intimate relationships, regardless of gender or sexuality.

Relationships involving carers of people with medical needs, disabilities, or the elderly.

Relationships with relatives, carers or guardians. 

True Infinity Support is dedicated to providing assistance to you and your family in times of need, particularly during challenging situations involving family and domestic violence. Our mission is to offer compassionate guidance and resources to help you navigate through these difficult circumstances, ensuring that you have the support necessary for a safer and more secure future.

What Is Child Protection?

Child protection in Western Australia focuses on safeguarding the welfare of children and ensuring their rights are upheld. Every child has the right to safety, care, and protection from harm. This includes the right to be heard and to participate in decisions affecting their lives.

Australian children and young people should:

Grow up safe and supported

Be free from harm and neglect

Feel connected to their family, community and culture

Have the right to grow up in an environment that helps them reach their full potential. 

We all need to work together to support children and young people. This is particularly important for the vulnerable and disadvantaged. 

State and territory governments are responsible for the care and protection of children experiencing, or at-risk of experiencing, abuse and neglect. Safe and Supported: the National Framework for Protecting Australia’s Children 2021-2031 (Safe and Supported) aims to reduce child abuse and neglect, and its inter-generational impacts. 

Safe and Supported aims to reduce the rate of child abuse and neglect and its impacts across generations. It is a framework for governments, community organisations and First Nations leaders to work together to achieve this.

True Infinity Support is dedicated to providing assistance in navigating these rights and promoting the well-being of children. We offer resources, guidance, and support to families and individuals, helping them access the necessary services to ensure a safe and nurturing environment for children.
