The NDIS – Getting Informed – North Burnett
Community Resource Unit Inc. (CRU)
Workshop Overview
· The National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) is a new way of supporting people with a disability across Australia.
· Participants will receive flexible funding tailored to their individual goals.
· What goals do you have around home, work, or education? How about your friendships and interests?
· The NDIS provides an important opportunity to “think big” about what a good life looks like for you.
· While this opportunity sounds promising, navigating any new system can be confusing!
· Community Resource Unit Inc (CRU) is running workshops to help rural communities get ready for the NDIS. Come along and hear about the NDIS...
o Share ideas about ways to get ready.
o Connect with others who are getting ready.
· If you can’t make it along, we would like to hear from you if you need information about the NDIS, so give us a call.
