Did You Know?

Support Coordination is an NDIS-funded service that helps participants implement their plans effectively. It's included in many NDIS plans to help people navigate the system and connect with the right supports.

Whether you're new to the NDIS or looking to optimise your existing plan, our support coordinators provide the guidance and expertise you need to succeed.

Understanding NDIS Support Coordination

NDIS Support Coordination provides professional guidance to help participants implement and manage their NDIS plans effectively. A support coordinator works closely with participants and their families to explain funding, identify suitable supports, and ensure services are delivered as planned.

This support gives you greater choice and control over how your funding is used while helping you access quality services that meet your needs. Support coordinators also liaise with service providers to ensure schedules are followed, goals are met, and billing is accurate.

"Support Coordination is about empowering participants to take control of their NDIS journey. We're here to provide the knowledge and connections you need to achieve your goals."
