Pam MacNeill is a long-time disability advocate and professional in the disability sector.
The goal of her company, Disability Responsivness New Zealand, is to provide educational training to staff for effective working with and understanding the issues faced by disabled New Zealanders.
In a recent blog post, she discusses the issues surrounding the lack of employment and training of young New Zealanders and the need to bring in migrant workers to fill these gaps.
She looks at it from a disability angle—a population not often mentioned in media reports such as this.
