Navigating the NDIS can feel like trying to read a map in a foreign language. Whether you’re new to the NDIS or looking to better understand your existing plan, it’s important to have the right knowledge to make the most of your support.

In this guide, we’ll explain NDIS plans in clear, simple terms to help you understand how they work.
 

Your NDIS Plan: The Basics:

Each NDIS plan is uniquely designed around you and your goals. Think of it as your personal roadmap to accessing the support you need. The plan focuses on your individual circumstances, needs, and aspirations.
 

Your NDIS funding is organised into three main categories:

1. Core Supports Budget

  • Everyday activities assistance
  • Consumables
  • Social and community participation
  • Transport support

2. Capacity Building Budget

  • Support coordination
  • Improved daily living skills
  • Health and wellbeing
  • Social skills development
  • Employment support

3. Capital Support Budget

  • Assistive technology
  • Home or vehicle modifications
  • Specialist disability accommodation

Flexibility and Changes:

 

Your plan isn’t set in stone. It can adapt as your circumstances change. This might include:

  • Changes in your support needs
  • Achievement of goals
  • New goals development
  • Changes in your living situation

Making Your Plan Work

 

Understanding your plan is key to making the most of your funding. You can:

  • Choose how to manage your funding
  • Select your preferred service providers
  • Decide how to use your supports
  • Track your budget
