Support Coordination
What is Support Coordination?
Support Coordination is a ‘Capacity building’ NDIS funded support. It is there to help with the implementation of all NDIS supports within a participant’s plan, and helps participants with connections to (formal) mainstream and (informal) community supports.
Support Coordination is located under the Capacity Building Category with the NDIS price guide. Depending on NDIS participant’s individual goals, plan objectives and aspirations a person may receive Support Coordination funding in their plan.
Level 2 - Support coordination
This support will assist you to build the skills you need to understand, implement and use your plan. A support coordinator will work with you to ensure a mix of supports is used to increase your capacity to maintain relationships, manage service delivery tasks, live more independently and be included in your community.
Level 3 - Specialist support coordination
This is a higher level of support coordination. It is for people whose situations are more complex and who need specialist support. A specialist Support Coordinator will assist participants to manage challenges within the support environment and ensuring consistent delivery of service.
