Dear Duncan

My name is Marita Morgan and I've just started work at Cerebral Palsy Alliance's Sydney Employment Development Service (SEDS).

Earlier this month, SEDS launched its brand new website - www.seds.com.au - a great resource for both employees with a disability and potential employers.

Having cerebral palsy myself, I understand the challenges many young people face when considering what to do once they've finished school.

Our new website is not only a great place to start researching your post-school options; it also features some success stories which may inspire you in your job search.

The aim of our SEDS teams is to find the best job match between employer and employee to ensure long term placements.

So, if you are on the threshold of entering the workforce or a parent keen to find information, then please make sure you you visit www.seds.com.au.

Plus, if you know any companies that would be interested in employing people with a disability, please give us a call on 02 9413 3400.

All the best,

Marita
