Understanding the NDIS in Newcastle
The National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) is designed to provide funding for people with a permanent and significant disability to access the support they need. In Newcastle, thousands of participants rely on the scheme to improve their quality of life, achieve their goals, and participate in the community.
Who Can Access the NDIS?
To access the NDIS, you must:
- Be under the age of 65 when applying.
- Be an Australian citizen, permanent resident, or hold a Protected Special Category Visa.
- Have a permanent and significant disability that impacts your ability to take part in everyday activities.
How Aus Care Community Services Helps
Navigating the NDIS can be challenging, especially if you are new to the scheme. We help participants and their families:
- Understand eligibility criteria.
- Apply for funding and gather supporting evidence.
- Develop personalised support plans that align with their goals.
