Microenterprise People

Microenterprise People Our network of customised employment specialists work to improve outcomes for people with disability.
(2)

Our Objectives:
- Work with Microenterprise owners with disability to achieve their employment goals.
- Promote and celebrate the employment success of people with disability.
- Work with businesses and organisations to improve the access for people with disability to be employed and/or enter their supply chains.
- To facilitate the exchange of experience, skills and resources between people with

disabilities from a peer perspective and a wider community perspective. Our Values:
- A microenterprise or employment must deliver on the person's values, providing they are legal.
- We will not highlight any individual unless their employment is sustainable and meets their values.
- We strive to continually build the capacity of the people we work with, in order to minimise the amount of support they require to have meaningful employment.
- The person with disability is at the centre of everything we do. Their voice shall be what guides us and ultimately has the greatest weight in all decision making.
- We use supported decision making practices and strive to promote these wherever possible.
- We seek to include the input and experience of people's formal and informal supports as appropriate.
- We acknowledge and honour the fundamental value and dignity of all individuals. We believe in the creation and maintenance of an environment that respects diverse abilities, traditions, heritages and experiences.
- We do what we say we will do and are transparent in all our activities.
- We will never seek to make a revenue directly from a person's microenterprise or wage unless it is to pay for an expense directly related to the person.
- We will promote and advocate for a community that is diverse and inclusive of all people.

Perth Hills Artisan Markets

Okay guys and gals, we have all seen the weather forecast for tomorrow and the afternoon is looking iffy (nice way to put it) so make sure to head to us for the 9.30am opening where you will find us inside the arena nice and dry.
We will have an umbrella bucket at the front for you to pop yours into if need be.
We have heard of a few events cancelling tomorrow, we are worried for our foodies as they are outside, the distilleries, wineries, sweet and savoury ones are inside with the artisans and creatives so make a beeline to Mundaring Arena tomorrow to support all these wonderful WA owned and operated businesses.
