DIVINE CARE SUPPORT SERVICES – TOGETHER WE CAN ACHIEVE MORE!

What is the NDIS?

There are around 4.3 million Australians who have a disability. Within the next five years, the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) will provide more than $22 billion in funding a year to an estimated 500,000 Australians who have permanent and significant disability. For many people, it will be the first time they receive the disability support they need.

The NDIS can provide all people with disability with information and connections to services in their communities such as doctors, sporting clubs, support groups, libraries and schools, as well as information about what support is provided by each state and territory government.

Am I eligible for the NDIS?

To be eligible for the NDIS you need to be the following:

Aged 7 to 65

Live in Australia as an Australian citizen or have a Permanent or Special Category Visa

And you answer yes to any of the below questions, you may be eligible for the NDIS.

  • Do you usually need support from a person because of a permanent and significant disability?
