Te Rōpū Ārahi o EGL Waitaha
Waitaha EGL Regional Leadership Group (WRLG)

Enabling Good Lives (EGL) is an approach to guide positive change so that ALL disabled people and their whānau have greater choice and control over their lives.

The Waitaha Enabling Good Lives (EGL) Regional Leadership Group's purpose is to lead this change in Waitaha (Canterbury).

We do this in 3 main ways:

one person talking, one person listening
two hands holding three people
loudspeaker amplifying voice

Listen 

Listen to and strengthen the voice of our community

Empower

Promote opportunities for learning, growth and thinking differently about what a good life can look like

Amplify

Amplify the voices of our community and advocate for change
