What is NDIS?
The National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) is a government-funded program in Australia that provides support to people with disability. The NDIS provides funding for a range of supports and services to help people with disability participate in their community and achieve their goals.
To be eligible for the NDIS, a person must have a disability that is likely to be permanent and significantly affect their ability to take part in everyday activities. They must also be an Australian citizen or hold a permanent visa.
​
The NDIS works by providing funding to participants in the form of a plan. This plan is developed with the participant and outlines the supports and services that are needed to help them achieve their goals. The plan is reviewed on a regular basis to ensure that it is meeting the participant's needs and helping them to progress towards their goals.
​
If you are an NDIS participant, you can use your NDIS funding to purchase a range of supports and services, including but not limited to:
-
Support coordination
-
Assistive technology
-
Transport
-
Personal care
-
Home modifications
