Hello, I am Julia Mansour.
I am the Project Lead for Resources for People with Intellectual Disability, Families and Supporters.
I work at Down Syndrome Australia.
Down Syndrome Australia is one of the Centre consortium members.
At Down Syndrome Australia, I help plan and deliver projects that include the voices and experiences of people with Down syndrome and intellectual disability.
For the Centre, I am leading a project to develop helpful and accessible health resources for people with intellectual disability, their families, and supporters.
I work with people with lived experience and other organisations to make sure the resources meet people’s needs.
I have experience supporting people with Down syndrome, facilitating programs, and assisting with projects.
My older sister has Down syndrome and has inspired much of the work I do.
Outside of work, I enjoy travelling, going to music festivals, and spending time with my cats, Hank and Vincent.
