National Disability Insurance Scheme

The National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) supports people with a permanent and significant disability which affects their ability to take part in everyday activities. The National Disability Insurance Agency (NDIA) implements the NDIS. 

The NDIS supports people with a disability to live an ordinary life. The type of support that is provided includes:

  • Support to achieve greater independence
  • Support to being more involved in the community 
  • Support in gaining employment, and
  • Support with improved wellbeing

The NDIS will fund reasonable and necessary supports that help people with disability to achieve their goals. The NDIS will not fund supports and services that are funded under mainstream services, but they will help the person with disability connect to those services.
