Through our SPRED Program (based on the Special Religious Education module), along with arts, crafts, and dance social activities, we foster one-on-one friendships and social connections for individuals with intellectual disability (Friends)—making dignity, joy, and the common good a shared, lived experience.

Guided by Faith, We Celebrate All Abilities
Since 1989, Personal Advocacy Service has fostered faith-based communities where people with intellectual disabilities can grow, belong, and form lifelong friendships.
As part of the Catholic Archdiocese of Perth, our mission and services are guided by Catholic Social Teachings.
Each experience we deliver is shaped by values of solidarity and dignity, empowering participants to embrace their abilities and unique gifts. Guided by subsidiarity, we design our services to remove barriers, ensuring everyone can fully participate and thrive.
