Windgap Foundation Limited
The Windgap Foundation Limited is an Australian not-for-profit organisation dedicated to supporting adults with intellectual disabilities.

The organisation’s mission centers on improving the quality of life for people with intellectual disabilities by supporting them to reach their full potential and increasing community awareness of their needs and aspirations. The Foundation employs a person-centred approach, ensuring that care and support services are tailored to each individual’s goals and preferences[2][5].
