We have developed some general information about what defines intellectual disability, particularly in the context of New Zealand.
There’s also information about being a good communicator and a guide for journalists to ensure media respectfully portray disabled people.
If you have any questions call our Community Connect phone line 9am to 6pm, Monday to Saturday on 0800 442 311
