NDIS

What is NDIS?

National 

The NDIS is a national scheme funded by both federal and state governments to provide supports and services to Australians living with permanent and significant disabilities to live an ordinary life.

Disability

The NDIS provides support to eligible people with intellectual, physical, sensory, cognitive, and psychosocial disabilities. Early intervention supports can also be provided for eligible participants and children with developmental delay.

Insurance

The NDIS gives all Australians peace of mind if they, their child or loved one is born with or acquires a permanent and significant disability, that they will get the support they need.

Scheme

The NDIS is not a welfare system and is not means tested. The NDIS is designed to help people get the support they need so their skills and independence can improve over time.

The National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) provides over 500,000 people living with disability funding to access services and supports to help them to live an ordinary life, in addition to information about and connection to services and supports in their communities such as doctors, sporting clubs, support groups, libraries, and schools, as well as information about what support is provided by each state and territory government.
