Navigating the NDIS
December 5 @ 10:00 am - 3:00 pm
This workshop offers practical training for child and family sector staff who support NDIS participants or carers of children in the NDIS. The session covers inside information on how NDIS decisions are made, how disability is defined in the NDIS, what evidence best supports claims, and the key language that can help achieve optimal outcomes.
This is a workshop designed to deliver practical, pragmatic training for child and family sector staff who may support participants in the NDIS, or the carers of children in the NDIS.
The training covers:
- An explanation of how the NDIS is designed to work, including the many assumptions built into it about families and children with a disability
- Clear explanation of the roles and responsibilities of child and family sector staff in working with families with disability.
- Parental perspectives on the experience of caring for a child with disability
- Tips and techniques to help support vulnerable families as they navigate the NDIS, from access to review and appeal
- An introduction to the wide network of support and advocacy organisations around the NDIS
The session shares inside-info about how decisions are made in the NDIS – this means you will come away with an insight into how disability is defined in the NDIS, what kinds of evidence influence decisions, and the right language to use to get the best outcomes. We include templates and tools to help you gather information and communicate the needs of children, parents and carers to NDIS decision makers.
