What is the NDIS?
The NDIS is the once-in-a-generation national project improving the lives of thousands of Australians living with disability. Taking a lifetime approach, the NDIS is designed to give people with disability the opportunity to build skills, participate in their community, and engage in employment. Instead of traditional state-based funding methods, the NDIS allocated individual funding so that people living with disability can choose how they access mainstream services, engage in community support, build up informal networks, and receive their necessary supports.
What are the benefits of self-managing my NDIS plan?
