NDIS Social and Community Participation Adelaide

What is Increased Social and Community Participation?

Increased Social and Community Participation is a key part of the Capacity Building funding. This funding helps people who want to become more active in their community and social activities. If this is included in your NDIS plan, you can use the funds for classes and activities that help you build skills and gain independence.

What support does Increased Social and Community Participation provide?

The way participants gain independence, skills, and confidence to engage in their community varies by individual. Since everyone learns differently and has different interests, this NDIS support can be tailored to fit your unique needs. For instance:

Skill-building activities: Use your funding for a few classes to explore activities like art, cooking, singing, dancing, horse riding, sports, or volunteering to see if you want to continue.

Social groups and camps: Use your funding to join social groups or camps to enhance your social skills, meet people, and try new activities.

Adjusted items: For some activities, you may need modified tools or objects due to your disability. For example, if you want to play golf, you can use your funding for a modified golf club.

Life skills development: Use your funding to learn new skills like using public transport, attending appointments, shopping, or visiting the post office, helping you become more confident and independent in your community.

How to boost Social and Community Participation in your NDIS plan?

To enhance Social and Community Participation, eligible participants should talk about their goals to engage more independently in the community during the initial NDIS plan meeting or annual review. Be ready with examples of challenges you face in social activities alone and why this support is crucial for your independence. If found reasonable and necessary, your LAC or NDIS provider will include Increased Social and Community Participation in your NDIS plan.
