We support individuals with disabilities in accessing and maintaining employment opportunities. This includes job coaching, skill development, workplace modifications, and other assistance to help secure and retain employment.
Examples of hypothetical situations:
Example 1: Mark, who has cerebral palsy, receives exceptional support from a job coach to find job opportunities, prepare his resume, and attend interviews. The NDIS funds workplace modifications like accessible desks, leading to Mark securing a position successfully and thriving in his new role.
Example 2: Emily, a young woman with autism, faces challenges in navigating the job market due to social communication difficulties. With support from a job coach funded by the NDIS, Emily receives tailored assistance in improving her interview skills and understanding workplace expectations. As a result, Emily secures employment at a local bakery, where she excels in her role and gains confidence in her abilities.
