For 30 years, Inclusive Directions has supported children with different abilities in Adelaide. We understand that there is no "one size fits all" solution for people with complex needs, and that inclusion is the key to a rewarding life. In July 2018, we joined The Benevolent Society.

For over 200 years The Benevolent Society has been a force of positive social change for our fellow Australians. We are proudly supporting the most vulnerable members of society and speaking up for those who don't have a voice.
