What a remote community connector is
Remote community connectors (RCCs) work for NDIS partners who help people with disability in remote or very remote communities.
There's a network of about 200 RCCs helping people across 480 remote communities.
What a remote community connector is for
RCCs can help you:
- understand the NDIS and how to apply
- with your current supports
- prepare for check-ins
- understand how to use your NDIS plan
- with questions you may have about the NDIS
- access supports and services
- with translations services to communicate with us and service providers.
Tip: Remote community connectors are not healthcare professionals.
They can’t provide healthcare support for your disability but can connect you with health professionals in your area.
For example, occupational therapists or a GP.
They can also help connect you with health professionals who can provide you with the evidence you may need when applying or making changes to your NDIS plan.
