We focus on innovative approaches to promote community participation and social inclusion. This includes funding for community activities, social skills programs, and initiatives to foster peer connections.

Examples of hypothetical situations:

Example 1: Max, a young man with autism, desires to build social connections and participate in community activities. With support from the NDIS, Max joins a local sports club, where he receives coaching and encouragement from his peers and mentors. Max thrives in the club’s inclusive environment, where he develops friendships and discovers a newfound passion for sports.

Example 2: Olivia, a young woman with a hearing impairment, wants to explore her artistic interests and connect with like-minded individuals. With support from her NDIS-funded support worker, Olivia joins a local art class where she learns new techniques and expresses her creativity freely. Olivia finds joy and fulfilment in the creative process and enjoys bonding with her fellow classmates over their shared love of art.
