What Exactly is the NDIS?
The NDIS or National Disability Insurance Scheme is a component of the larger National Disability Strategy which is a long term plan of improving the lives of Australians with disability.
The National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) provides support to people with disability and their families. NDIS has a broader role in helping people with disability to access mainstream services such as health, housing, education, employment, community access, innovative community participation and more.
Eligible participants of the NDIS will receive funded support with a plan that focuses on providing opportunities to utilize services in order for participants to achieve their desired life goals.
