Welcome to PIMDA. PIMDA stands for profound intellectual and multiple disabilities Australia. PIMDA is Sheridan Forster's weblog about issues to do with people with profound intellectual and multiple disabilities (PIMD) in Australia. The purpose of PIMDA is to increase awareness of people with PIMD and the issues pertaining to this population. The other purpose of PIMDA is to build a network of interested people who can then work together to improve the lives of people with PIMD.

About Me
- Sheridan
- I am a person interested in the lives of people with PIMD. I wear multiple hats including researcher, therapist, advocate, and friend. I strongly believe that in order to continue to improve the lives of adults with PIMD we need to acknowledge the specfic issues related to this group of people. The first step in this is acknowledging that there are a group of people who have PIMD, and although they are all individuals there are some issues that they share in common. I hope this weblog enables discussion of what some of these issues are.
