Nick Johnston is the Community Educator at Auckland Disability Law, and responsible for ADL’s legal education programme in the Auckland and Northland regions. Nick is not a lawyer; instead, his professional background lies in Occupational Therapy, where he supported stroke survivors back into employment. Witnessing the challenges and discrimination disabled people faced first-hand has fuelled his passion for working to remove the barriers that prevent disabled people from participating in society, as well as his desire to ensure that everyone is aware of their rights and obligations under the law.
