About us
Disappointed by a recent string of harmful policies from NDIA, members from the disability community– with professional backgrounds in law, government, allied-health and support coordination– have come together to develop user-led alternatives to help make NDIS safer for its vulnerable participants, mindful of scheme's need to become financially sustainable.
We believe that there's no need to harm participants in the quest for savings as is currently occurring on the scheme: it's not an either/or. With smart co-design, NDIS can be made financially sustainable without jeopardising essential care support of the scheme disabled participants.
Our mission is to make NDIS safe and equitable for its disabled participants– as well as financially sustainable– through user-led advocacy and co-design.
