The National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) has reached a major milestone with more than 250,000 Australians now receiving support under the world-leading Scheme.
The NDIA would like to reassure people with disability, their families and carers that any autistic person eligible for the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) will continue to receive the reasonable and necessary supports they need.
New and practical changes to help NDIS participants with career aspirations to find work are kicking in next month, the Federal Government has announced. Minister for Families and Social Services, Paul Fletcher said the NDIS Participant Employment Taskforce he established in November 2018 is now delivering changes that open the way for better employment outcomes.
Assistant Minister for Social Services, Housing and Disability Services, Sarah Henderson will visit Matchworks in Geelong today to present a range of practical changes to help National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) participants with career goals to develop their skills and find work.
The Federal Government has opened applications for grants totaling $19.9 million for organisations that help smooth the way for Australians with disability into work.
The NDIS has released a new Information Linkages and Capacity Building (ILC) grant round on 15 February 2019 to boost economic participation for people with disability.
National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) participants will find it easier to replace their Assistive Technology (AT) to enable them to continue to pursue their goals following the introduction of simpler processes.
