The NDIS works by providing individualized support and funding to eligible people with disability. When an individual applies for the NDIS, they will undergo an assessment to determine their needs and goals. This assessment is used to develop an NDIS plan, which outlines the support and services the individual will receive.

The NDIS plan is reviewed and updated regularly to ensure that it continues to meet the individual’s needs and goals. The NDIS provides funding for a range of supports and services, including therapy and rehabilitation, assistive technology, and personal care and support.
