Transforming Lives 

‘Transforming Lives’ is the programme to implement the changes informed by the recommendations of the report Value for Money and Policy Review of the Disability Services in Ireland (2012). It is a programme of reform to sustainably migrate to new models of support, governed by a National Steering Group, reporting to the Minister of State for Disabilities and driven by six National Cross-Sector Working Groups.  The six national Cross-Sector Working Groups have informed, shaped and driven the work of the change programme to date. 

The Steering Group and Cross-Sector Working Groups involved key members from across the Disability Service Sector including representatives from the Health Service Executive, the Department of Environment, the Department of Health, The Department of Public Expenditure and Reform, the Disability Umbrella Bodies and Parent Representatives. 

These working groups have now completed their work and the outcomes of their work continue to inform the Transforming Lives programme.
