About the NDIS

The National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) is a groundbreaking initiative by the Australian government, designed to support individuals with disabilities in achieving their goals and improving their quality of life. Launched in 2013, the NDIS provides funding for a range of services including personal care, transport, and therapeutic support, enabling participants to live more independently and engage more fully in their communities.

At its core, the NDIS focuses on personalized care, allowing participants to choose the support that best meets their unique needs. This individualized approach fosters greater independence and self-determination. The scheme also aims to build more inclusive communities by promoting accessibility and reducing barriers for people with disabilities. Through collaboration with service providers like Aligned Community Care, the NDIS is transforming lives and creating a more inclusive society.
