Support through the NDIS

Find out how the NDIS may support people with disability or if there are concerns about a child’s development.

Support for children younger than 9

Support for children younger than 9 is available through the NDIS program, early childhood approach. It supports children with disability or if there are concerns about a child’s development.

Early childhood partners can connect you to supports for your child. Children younger than 6 don’t need a diagnosis to get support.

Early childhood partners can:

  • provide information 
  • connect you to services and supports in your community 
  • connect you with other families 
  • help you apply to the NDIS.

Find out more about the early childhood approach on the NDIS website.

Support for people aged 9 to 65

The NDIS supports people with significant intellectual, physical, sensory, cognitive and psychological disabilities.

If you’re eligible, the local area coordination partner will work with you to develop a plan. It outlines your goals and support you’ll get from the NDIS.

Find out more about applying to the NDIS on the NDIS website.
