Thoughts Australia and the National Disability Insurance Scheme
Thoughts Australia complies with all the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) State and Commonwealth Government requirements for the delivery of quality and safe disability support services.
01
What is NDIS?
Approximately 4.3 million Australians currently live with a disability.
Over the next five years, the NDIS aims to allocate funding for supports and services to an estimated 500,000 Australians facing permanent and significant disabilities.
This initiative is anticipated to be a crucial step for many individuals, as it marks their initial access to the necessary disability support.

Am I eligible for NDIS?
If you are aged between 9 and 65, a local area coordinator can help you to understand the NDIS, apply and connect with other government and community supports.
If you have a child younger than 9, an early childhood partner can provide supports to children before they apply, and let families know if the NDIS is right for their child.
