Support Coordinators & Service Providers

Your Guide Through the NDIS Journey

Understanding Support Coordination & Service Providers

Support Coordinators and Service Providers play crucial roles in the NDIS system. Support Coordinators help you understand and implement your NDIS plan, connect you with appropriate providers, and build your capacity to coordinate your own supports. Service Providers deliver the actual disability support services outlined in your plan.

Working together, coordinators and providers form a comprehensive support network that ensures you receive high-quality, person-centered services that help you achieve your goals and live your best life. Understanding their roles and how to choose the right ones is essential for maximizing your NDIS experience.
