Funding Pathways: NDIS & Support at Home (Aged Care)

We make navigating government care funding straightforward, ensuring you receive the maximum benefit from your plan to live a fulfilling life.

 

NDIS Community & Social Participation

For NDIS participants, companionship and social support are funded under the Core Supports (Assistance with Social, Economic, and Community Participation) or Capacity Building budgets. We focus on helping you build your social skills, increase your community independence, and confidently achieve your personal goals.

 

Support at Home Framework (Aged Care Classifications)

As the Australian Government rolls out the Support at Home program, staying socially connected is highly prioritized to support healthy aging. If you hold a government-funded ongoing support plan, you can use your allocation to fund our companionship services, keeping you active and deeply connected to your community as you age gracefully in place.
