The NDIS provides funding to eligible people with disability to gain more time with family and friends, greater independence, access to new skills, jobs, or volunteering in their community, and an improved quality of life.
The NDIS website can be found here.
The National Disability Insurance Agency (NDIA) is the independent agency responsible for implementing the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS).
To apply for the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS), you will need to provide information about your disability and the kinds of supports you need. You can get this information from doctors, specialists, allied health workers and disability support services. The application process is likely to be long and involved. You’ll need to think about what services and budgets to apply for in your NDIS plan.
The first part of the process is to contact the NDIS and fill in an Access Request Form.
Our team can also assist people to understand how to access the Scheme.

A big part of the thinking behind the NDIS is that living a full life starts with being a part of your community and having the same opportunities as everybody else.
