Applying for NDIS funding

Applying for the NDIS can be a long and at times difficult process. It is worth it though, with lifelong assistance at the end. There are many resources available on the NDIS website including a step-by-step guide on to how to apply and where to get extra help from an NDIA office or Local Area Coordinator (LAC) partner.
