NDIS Capacity Building Supports - A Quick Look

The NDIS is a government-funded health insurance scheme for people with disabilities in Australia. The NDIS helps participants with disabilities achieve their goals, increase their independence, and lead active lives by participating in their communities. One of the ways the NDIS achieves this is through empowerment.

Capacity-building Support is designed to help people with disabilities acquire the skills and knowledge they need to achieve their goals and participate effectively in their communities. These supports focus on building people's capacity to act for themselves, not just providing services. They aim to help people with disabilities be independent, enabling them to contribute to their communities and lead active and meaningful lives. 



Capacity-building Support is divided into nine categories. These include: 

 

1. Coordination of Supports

This Support helps individuals navigate the NDIS and other available services and supports. A trusted support coordination service provider can also assist you with support planning in the following ways: 


  • Help to find the participants.
  • It helps you to determine what you should look into or require from a participant.
  • Maintaining relations with support workers and providers.
  • Booking and keeping track of the Supports.
  • Refrain from complaining if you are unhappy with the Support provided. 


2. Better living conditions

This Support helps people find and maintain suitable housing. It helps to find someone who can help you check out the rental property and guide you through the process and what to look for in the property.

 

3. The growth of social and community participation

This Support helps people get involved in community events, social activities, and other activities they enjoy. It also helps develop your social skills and connect with other community members. It will also help to go and find Support or other social groups.

 

4. Find and keep jobs 

This Support helps people find and keep a job and develop the skills they need to succeed in the job market. It is helpful to write a CV and cover letter so that they can apply for the job. It also helps develop computer and organizational skills to help with the project.

 

5. Improved communication 

This Support helps individuals develop and maintain healthy relationships with family, friends, and others. Consulting a psychologist will help you understand people's social cues, body language, and emotions. This will help you enjoy your conversations and time with others.

 

6. Improved health and well-being

This Support helps people improve their physical and mental health. This will help: 

 

  • Understand what physical activities you need to maintain wellness.
  • Engage a personal trainer to help you get fit or improve your mobility.
  • Engage a nutritionist to learn more about diet or to get a personalized meal plan.


7. Better Education 

This Support helps people develop new skills and knowledge, for example, by following courses or training. 


8. Better lifestyle choices

This Support helps individuals make informed decisions about their lives and demonstrates choice and control. 


9. Improvement of daily life

This Support helps individuals develop the skills to live independently, such as managing their finances or doing housework. Each of these categories includes different supports designed to meet the needs of the person with a disability. Power law support is designed to be flexible and responsive to individual changing needs. They are provided individually, and the level of Support may vary depending on the individual's needs and goals.

 

Overall, capacity-building Support is essential to the NDIS, helping people with disabilities build capacity and achieve their goals meaningfully. Focusing on the person's strengths and abilities rather than their disabilities, these supports help promote independence, inclusion, and participation in the community.
