Getting out into the community and participating is an essential part of living a fulfilled life. Support with Social and Community Participation is a funded and support section that you may find in your NDIS plan.

Community participation is an indispensable aspect of leading a fulfilling life, as it allows individuals to actively engage with their surroundings and contribute positively to society. The National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) recognizes the significance of community participation in empowering individuals with disabilities, thus providing support through its Social and Community Participation funding section. This bespoke section within an NDIS plan offers financial assistance and resources tailored specifically to facilitate active involvement within local communities. Its purpose encompasses everything from joining social groups, attending recreational activities, participating in cultural events or sports clubs, volunteering opportunities, vocational training programs, and much more. Through the provision of this vital support system for community participation, individuals are encouraged to connect with others while honing valuable skills that enhance personal growth and pave the way towards a truly enriched existence.

The CapableCare Support Team has a vast amount of experience in sourcing and coordinating fun, stimulating social and community activities.

We can provide support for either centre or community-based activities (e.g. to attend a library or social group)
