NDIS

What is NDIS?

National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS)

The National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) is a nationwide insurance initiative in Australia that provides essential support to individuals with disabilities, as well as their families and carers. The NDIS aims to empower people with disabilities to achieve their goals and actively engage in their communities. It offers funding for a range of supports and services, including therapy, equipment, and home modifications, to eligible individuals.

Designed for flexibility, the NDIS allows participants to select the supports and services that best align with their specific needs and aspirations. As an insurance scheme, it is funded by the government and contributions from individuals with disabilities, their families, and carers. The NDIS is accessible to individuals with disabilities who meet specific eligibility criteria, regardless of their age, location, or type of disability.
