Kimberley Supports is a network of Aboriginal led organisations working in collaboration to support Aboriginal people and families to access the NDIS and utilise their plans. These Kimberly Supports videos tell the stories of NDIS participants they work with:
- Josh Button is working with NDIS and his independent support workers are assisting him to develop his artistic talents.
- How NDIS is supporting Alex Fernandez

The NAIDOC 2021 theme – Heal Country! – calls for stronger measures to recognise, protect, and maintain all aspects of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander culture and heritage.
