To New Wave Gippsland
New Wave is made up of 4 self advocacy groups that are run by and for people with intellectual disability and acquired brain injury (ABI) living in Gippsland.
Nothing about us, without us!
We work together and speak up to make sure we have the same rights, choices and opportunities as anyone else in the community. Our 4 self advocacy groups are: New Wave Morwell, New Wave Bass Coast, New Wave Leongatha and the New Wave Rainbow Pride group.

About New Wave
What we do
All our self advocacy groups are run by and for people with intellectual disability and with acquired brain injury living in Gippsland.
We are self advocates who have joined together to speak up and make sure we have the same rights, choices and opportunities as anyone else in the community.
Before self advocacy I didn’t know my rights, I didn’t even know that I had rights.
Once I was frightened—Now I am confident. Once I would always say “Yes” – now I can speak my mind and say “No”
