# whangareiyouthadvisorygroup

Now because I understand the need for the disabled to communicate I have started a FB page for the WDC DAG

This page does not represent WDC DAG it opens a line of communication between Dag Members so we can speak amongst ourselves and be seen by the community. The youth group page is very active now if we can do as well

I have no photos of the WDC disability advisory group but would love some to put on the page
