AI Toolkit for Disability Service Providers

AI offers opportunities to reduce administrative burden, improve access to information, and enhance services for clients and families. Yet it also brings new risks and responsibilities. AI must be approached with extra care in disability services to ensure accessibility, fairness, and respect for the lived experiences of clients and families. This resource places those responsibilities at the center, recognizing that any technology used in the disability sector must serve people first.

The toolkit will help disability service providers navigate the safe, ethical, and effective use of artificial intelligence in their organizations. It provides a practical framework to guide decision-making, shape policy, and ensure AI use reflects organizational values and legal obligations.

The toolkit offers guiding principles for AI use, detailed sections covering relevant areas from policy considerations to monitoring and evaluation, and quick reference information and templates to help create policies and guidelines.
