Join us to make Every Australian Count
National Disability Insurance Scheme
Australia’s approach to disability services is crisis-driven and welfare-based. A National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) would change this. The Scheme would provide funding for essential care, support, therapy, aids, equipment, home modifications and access to the community, education and training.
The campaign for a National Disability Insurance Scheme is supported by Sunnyfield and an unprecedented, politically bi-partisan and rapidly growing coalition of people with disabilities, carers, disability service providers, peak disability bodies and community and welfare organisations.
| UPDATE: January 2012
The NDIS won bi-partisan support, with all parties ‘signing up’ to the scheme following innovative lobbying by the NDS. There are also currently over 107,000 supporters of the NDIS! But there is still a way to go. Every Australian Counts will re-launch on Australia Day for a new year with an approach aimed at taking advantage of the position the NDS has built to make the NDIS a certainty. The NDS has stated that it will be campaigning for bipartisan support for the following outcomes to guarantee the NDIS is not just a good idea, but a reality. : 1. A legislated statutory agency to run the scheme 2. The announcement of the launch sites 3. Clear commitment to fully fund the NDIS The campaign will continue to ensure that the NDIS is central to the political agenda in 2012. Let's continue to work together and make the NDIS a reality! |
