NDIS

What is the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS)?

What is the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS)?

The National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) is a government-funded program in Australia that provides support and services to people with permanent and significant disabilities. It aims to help individuals achieve greater independence, participate more fully in the community, and improve their quality of life. The NDIS offers funding for a wide range of supports, including personal care, therapy, assistive technology, transport, and employment assistance, based on each participant’s unique goals and needs.

Who funds it and how it works?

The National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) is jointly funded by the Australian Federal Government and state and territory governments. It is a national initiative designed to provide individualised support to people with permanent and significant disabilities.

Here’s how it works:

  • Eligible participants receive funding directly from the NDIS based on their personal needs and goals.

  • This funding can be used to access a wide range of supports and services, such as personal care, therapies, assistive technology, and community participation.

  • Participants have the choice and control to decide how their funds are used, who provides their services, and how those services are delivered.
