NDIS
What is the NDIS
The National Disability Insurance Scheme is an Australian Government service, that funds, plans, and manages costs associated with those diagnosed with a disability and approved under the scheme.
The NDIS provides funding to eligible people with disability to gain more time with family and friends, greater independence, access to new skills, jobs, or volunteering in their community, and improved quality of life.
Implemented by the National Disability Insurance Agency
The NDIS also connects anyone with disability to services in their community.
The various support areas available ensures that direct funding and support is provided to all the citizens in need of help from a variety of areas. Implemented by the National Disability Insurance Agency, various Australian companies are outsourced to provide care services to the community.
