Organisational Structure
Membership of STAR comprises of people from all walks of life and culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds. Membership includes people who have an intellectual disability, parents/family members, as well as members of the wider community who share and uphold the vision and values of the organisation. The Core Principles and policy framework that underpin all STAR's work are reviewed regularly, strengthened and amended where necessary and adopted by the Membership at the AGM.
STAR does not have a branch structure, rather operating through key
metropolitan and regional/rural contacts and networks. STAR actively fosters and encourages the identification and support of new members and strives to nurture their involvement in the organisation.
STAR is managed by a Board of volunteers who are elected
annually at the AGM by the membership. The composition of the Board represents the broad categories of membership, including people with an intellectual disability, family members and those working in the disability field supportive of STAR's principles and vision. People with a disability and family members always form the majority of the Board.
The role of the Board is to manage the organization in accordance with all legislative requirements, STAR's constitution, the stated Core Principles, comprehensive policy framework and operational procedures within the approved budget.
