- Economic Participation stream
- Sector based initiatives to create pathways to employment and drive inclusive practices for people with disability to contribute to Australia’s economic prosperity and
- Social and Community Participation stream
- Inclusive practices to create opportunities for people with disability to participate in community life, with a focus on arts, culture, sport and recreation.
The specific outcomes for the ECP Program include:
