A National Disability
Insurance Scheme
People with a disability and their families need a secure future. The struggle for essential services and support is never ending – from early intervention to equipment, respite, accommodation, employment and family support.
It is time to change the way services for people with a disability are funded in Australia.
A planned, fully-funded, National Disability Insurance Scheme will underwrite sustained, significant, long-term improvements in meeting the needs of people with a disability and their families.
Five minutes could
change your life
Imagine a future where people with a significant or complex disability had free and ready access to all the services and equipment they need.
Show your support for the National Disability Insurance Scheme and tell the government about the difficulties faced by you and your family.
Your comments will help shape the National Disability Strategy – a vision of what life could be like for people with a disability and their families in Australia.
