SUPPORT CATEGORY

TYPES OF SUPPORT ITEMS FUNDED

Support Coordination

A fixed amount for each plan to hire a support coordinator, who helps you connect to the NDIS provider, who is the right fit to achieve the aims of your plan.

Improved Living Arrangements

If you’re struggling to find somewhere to live, this category aims to help you. (On a related side note, the SALT Foundation is a charity and we provide food relief to our NDIS participants if they need it.)

Increased Social & Community Participation

Help to gain the skills you need to take part in recreational activities in the community.

Finding & Keeping a Job

A range of employment-related support, such as training and support to help you find and keep a job.

Improved Relationships

While anyone with a disability may need to learn how to have stronger relationships, healthy relationships and a sense of connection are crucial for people with a psychosocial disability. In this category, you’ll typically work with a psychologist to build these skills.

Improved Health & Wellbeing

Get advice to keep your physical health in optimal shape so you have the energy you need to handle the challenges of your disability.

Improved Learning

This category offers encouragement and information on how to move from school to further education at a university or a TAFE, or if you’re returning to study after an absence.

Improved Life Choices

If you need NDIS plan management, this category is the part of your funding that pays for it.

Improved Daily Living

Aimed at helping you learn new skills, become more independent, and involve yourself in the community more. You may get these services in a group or one-on-one.
