We made the NDIS real. Now let’s make it work.

The NDIS is making a difference every day. But we know it’s still not working for everyone. That’s why Every Australian Counts is bringing everyone together with the NDIS Make It Work forums.

Join Mission Australia and Occupational therapist Sarah MacInness from SEED paediatric services and learn practical strategies that can be implemented immediately into the day to day environment, whether it be at home or within an education setting.

The Hunter Disability Expo is set to be the biggest and most anticipated Disability Expo on the 2020 Hunter Calendar. The National Disability Insurance Scheme has now rolled out across most of NSW, and thousands of residents with disabilities from the greater Hunter region have gained greater control over their lives and will be on the lookout for the most suitable services in their local area to meet their individual needs.

We made the NDIS real. Now let’s make it work.

The NDIS is making a difference every day. But we know it’s still not working for everyone. That’s why Every Australian Counts is bringing everyone together with the NDIS Make It Work forums.

This forum is one of a series of over 30 Make it Work forums we have held around the country since August 2018. The purpose of the forums is to bring together people with disability, families and carers, and people who work in the sector to talk about what's working, what's not, and what needs to change.

At this forum we will be joined by NDIA CEO Mr Martin Hoffman. Mr Hoffman is coming along to hear directly from you - people with disability and their families - about your experiences with the NDIS.

He will be there just to listen to what you have to say. No speeches or Powerpoint presentations - just to listen and hear what is really happening on the ground.

So don't miss your chance to have your say and help shape the NDIS!

Let's get the NDIS working for everyone who needs it.
