What is the NDIS?
The National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) is a government-funded program that provides support and services to people with disabilities across Australia. The NDIS helps participants achieve their goals, increase independence, and access the disability support they need to participate in everyday life. Through personalised NDIS funding and supports, participants can build skills, engage with their communities, and live more fulfilling lives.
Who is Eligible for the NDIS?
Age Requirement: You must be under 65 years of age when applying for the NDIS.
Residency Requirement: You must be an Australian citizen, permanent resident, or hold a Protected Special Category Visa.
Disability Requirement: You must have a permanent and significant disability that affects your ability to perform everyday activities and requires NDIS support.
How Does the NDIS Work?
1.Apply for the NDIS
If you meet the NDIS eligibility requirements, you can submit an application. Eligible participants are invited to a planning meeting to discuss their needs, goals, and support requirements.
2. Create Your NDIS Plan
During your planning meeting, you will discuss the supports and services that can help you achieve your goals and increase your independence. Your NDIS plan is tailored to your individual needs and circumstances.
3. Receive Funding and Ongoing Support
Once approved, you will receive NDIS funding through a personalised plan that outlines your approved supports. Your plan is reviewed regularly to ensure it continues to meet your changing needs and goals.
4. Choosing Your Services
You can choose service providers that suit you best—whether for therapy, personal care, or other essential supports that improve your quality of life. To help you manage and coordinate these supports, learn more about our Plan Management and Support Coordination services.
