Step-by-Step: Creating Your NDIS Plan
-
Understand Your Goals
Think about your short-term and long-term goals—these could include improving your daily living skills, finding a job, joining social groups, or becoming more independent. -
Gather Evidence of Your Disability
You’ll need to provide recent medical or specialist reports that explain how your disability impacts your daily life. -
Prepare for Your Planning Meeting
Meet with a Local Area Coordinator (LAC) or NDIS planner. Bring notes about your support needs, daily routine, and what’s currently working (or not working). -
Include All Relevant Supports
Think about every aspect of your life—home, transport, therapy, social participation—and how support can help. -
Review and Adjust
Your plan can be reviewed and updated over time to match your evolving goals.
