Frequently asked questions.

The NDIS is all about supporting you to achieve your goals, and that includes getting involved in your community. Your NDIS plan can include funding for assistance with social, economic and community participation, which means you can access support to do the things you love. We’ll work with you to figure out what you want to achieve and how we can help you get there.

Honestly, the sky’s the limit! It’s all about what sparks your interest. Here are a few ideas to get your imagination going:

Making friends and connections: Joining NDIS social groups, going to concerts or festivals, catching up with mates for coffee.
Trying new things: Taking a cooking class, learning to play the guitar, joining a hiking group.
Giving back: Volunteering at a local charity, mentoring others, getting involved in community projects.
Learning and growing: Taking a TAFE course, attending workshops, developing new skills.
Exploring job opportunities: Getting help with resume writing, practicing interview skills, volunteering to gain experience.
Essentially, if it helps you connect with your community and achieve your goals, it’s worth exploring.

We’re your partners in community engagement. We’ll start by getting to know you – what you’re passionate about, what your goals are, and what kind of support you need. We’ll then create a personalised plan together, outlining how we can help you get out there and get involved. This might include things like:

Finding the right activities: We’ve got our finger on the pulse of what’s happening in Melbourne and can connect you with groups and activities that match your interests.
Getting there and back: We can provide transport assistance to get you where you need to go.
Building your confidence: We can offer support and encouragement to help you step outside your comfort zone and try new things.
Connecting with others: We can help you build your social skills and connect with like-minded people.
We’re all about social and community participation and providing the NDIS assistance with social and community participation you need to thrive.

Absolutely! Exploring your options is all part of the process. We can help you discover new interests and connect you with different activities until you find something that clicks. Think of us as your community guides!

You’ve got a few options when it comes to managing your NDIS funding. You can manage it yourself, have a plan manager help you out, or have the NDIA manage it for you. We can chat through the pros and cons of each option and help you decide what’s best for you. We can also work closely with your plan manager to make sure your funding is used wisely to support your community participation goals.

Inclusivity is at the heart of everything we do. We believe everyone deserves the chance to participate in their community, regardless of their background or abilities. We’ll work closely with you to understand your individual needs and make sure our support is tailored to meet them. We’re also committed to working with community organisations that share our values of inclusion and accessibility.
