It can feel tricky working this out on your own — the award, NDIS price limits, and different employment arrangements can all be confusing. We will share experiences, tips, and resources so no one has to figure it out alone.

The NDIS has new rules that affect when people are allowed to manage their own funding. These rules explain when you can self-manage, use a plan manager, or must have the NDIA manage your funding.
In this workshop, we’ll explain the new rules in plain language. We’ll talk about what the NDIA looks at when deciding when someone can manage their own funding and what you can do if they say no
