All you need to know about the NDIS

The National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS)

The NDIS is Australia’s first national scheme for people with disability. It provides funding directly to individuals.

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


Designed to help people get the support they need so their skills and independence improve over time, the NDIS provides funding to eligible people based on their individual needs.

Achieving your goals with NDIS

The NDIS can help you achieve goals in many aspects of your life. It’s about your choices, the decisions you and those closest to you make, your involvement in your community, your education and employment.

It’s also about your overall health and wellbeing, and creating opportunities for you to have greater participation in a more inclusive community.

If you have a child with a disability, the changes will significantly enhance the quality of life you envisage for them. They will grow up without the barriers to a full life that they may have otherwise experienced.

For adults, the changes will empower you to make your own choices, live your life and define your future.
