Our Dream!

A Place To Call Home

We want to create the opportunity to secure a home for your family member with a disability. We want to build this single unit accommodation which is simple and inexpensive.

What we stand for
&
our principles

Mission

Equality and Opportunity for All.

Vision

NAFWAM's vision is simple: we want everyone to have access to a good life. A good life for people with disabilities is not very different from a good life for anyone else: friends and family who love them, a place of one's own, financial security, participating in decision making, and the ability to make a contribution to society.

Values

In all of its work, NAFWAM CARE is guided and inspired by four basic principles:
'We believe that caring relationships are the key to safety, security and a good life. Cultivating loving networks for individuals with disabilities and their families, is at the heart of NAFWAMs work.

Over thirty years of working with people with disabilities, it has become clear to me that dignity, self determination and a caring support network is what matters. - Stephen, NAFWAM CARE, founder

At NAFWAM CARE, we believe that participation is the key to a fuller life. Participation contribution equals citizenship. People with disabilities have important contributions to make to our communities, and NAFWAM CARE works to ensure the people it serves are recognised for their contributions.

We see our commercial goal as being to ensure that people with a disability are able to access the most effective and efficient services, provided by people and businesses that commit to and honour NAFWAM's code of Respecting the client at all time, Being honest, Involving the person with a disability in all parts of the decision making process, Total transparency.

It is not the dollar made available that makes for a successful disability support scheme, but how that dollar is spent". Karel de Laat, NAFWAM Chair, Group Development.


Through NAFWAM we want to assist families to have peace of mind".
