Escaping A World of Domestic Violence

"Why can't I be a social worker or a lawyer or a journo just because I'm missing some muscles." Karni Liddell is a paralympian, disability and diversity specialist, clinical social worker, and a member of the Queensland Premier's Domestic and Family Violence Implementation Council. In this episode Karni talks with Pete and Tristram about the disturbing statics facing the disability community when it comes to domestic and family violence and what needs to be done to solve this issue. She also talks about her frustrations with people with a disability being recognised as good at sport yet when it comes to employment there is a completely different attitude.
