Disability resources
Family Planning NSW has a wide range of resources for people with intellectual disability and their support people, including parents and carers, disability workers, clinicians and students.
All of our resources are available for loan from our Disability Resource Collection. The Disability Resource Collection is made up of reproductive and sexual health resources produced by Family Planning NSW, as well as resources sourced from across the world.
The collection can be accessed in person at our Newington centre or across NSW through our mail delivery service. Membership fees apply for borrowing from this collection.
