The National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) is a national program that enables people with a permanent and significant disability to choose their own supports and services to meet their personal needs and goals.

The National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) is the new way of providing support for Australians with disability, their families and carers.
As an insurance scheme, the NDIS takes a lifetime approach, investing in people with disability early to improve their outcomes later in life.

To find out more about the NDIS, visit the NDIS website.

If you are under the age of 65 and have a disability that affects your ability to take part in everyday activities, you may be eligible for the NDIS.

The best place to start is the NDIS Access Checklist, which is available at https://www.ndis.gov.au/applying-access-ndis/am-i-eligible
Alternatively, you can call the NDIS directly on 1800 800 110.
