When don’t you know what something is, how do you know what to ask for about NDIS? The most major reform for people with disabilities in Australia, but so fraught with tedious obstacles.
How much do you know about NDIS Support Coordination? Have you ever looked at your NDIS plan and felt lost? Confused? Have you ever attempted to find legal aid to help you at an Administrative Appeals Tribunal?
The NDIS is a complicated beast. In this episode Louise Hilton and Mel Gorman from our Community Services team and April Holt from our Policy and Advocacy team come on to discuss the NDIS from their experiences with participants on the scheme and from a policy perspective.
They talk about how the support plans seem too broad and too specific, share how educating NDIS planners and Local Area Coordinators can benefit participants and how all of these combined contribute to everyone getting NDIS burnout and the inaccuracies behind the phrase “NDIS blowout”.
