NDIS Training

Length of training: 4 hours

This training explores how the National Disability Insurance Scheme works for children subject to Child Protection orders under the Child Protection Act 1999.  Co-written with colleagues from the Disabilities department through the Department of Children, Youth Justice and Multicultural Affairs, this training is aimed at assisting carers to understand the following:

• An overview of NDIS – what does it mean, how do children and young people qualify for service

• How plans are developed and how carers can be involved in this process for the children they care for

• What services are available through NDIS for children and young people and how this will look from a practical point of view

• The interface between Child Safety and NDIS
