It runs for four hours in total and is delivered in two separate two-hour sessions. You can choose to attend both sessions on the same day or spread them across two different days – whatever suits your schedule best

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.
