The National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) provides comprehensive support for Australians living with psychosocial disabilities, focusing on building functional capacity, independence, and meaningful community participation. Your psychosocial disability stems from the effects of mental health conditions that impact your daily functioning, not just the mental health condition itself.

Starting your NDIS journey can feel overwhelming. New participants often make predictable mistakes that delay their progress or waste precious funding. These errors are preventable with the right knowledge and preparation.

If you’re preparing for an NDIS planning meeting, you might be wondering what to expect and how to make the most of this important step. The planning meeting is a chance for you to discuss your goals, needs, and the supports that will help you live your best life.
