The JFM Fund provides grant funding for projects to develop, test and grow innovations and new models in disability inclusion to advance the opportunities for people with disability to be included as valued, contributing members in communities of their choice.
The JFM Fund is part of a group of social purpose organisations, known as the Julia Farr group, who share a common set of values and a mission of disability inclusion.

We’re working towards true inclusion by centring the voices of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people with disability.
To support this work, the Julia Farr group (of which JFM Fund is a part) is developing a Reconciliation Action Plan (RAP). This plan shows our commitment to recognising, respecting, and celebrating the enduring connection First Nations people have to Country.
Our RAP is a strategic priority that guides us to build knowledge and grow cultural awareness. It will also help us create a culturally safe, inclusive workplace for First Nations people.
True inclusion means listening to and embedding the voices of First Nations people with disability in all we do.
We want everyone to feel confident and comfortable when visiting our office.
