Understanding the NDIS

The National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) is Australia’s first national scheme designed to provide support to eligible people with a permanent and significant disability, under the age of 65.

The NDIS is not a welfare system, but an insurance scheme designed to help participants get the support they need to improve their skills and independence over time. It offers participants choice and control over the support they receive, enabling them to pursue their goals, increase independence, enhance social and economic participation, and develop their capacity to actively engage in the community.
