The National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) is an Australian government initiative aimed at providing support and funding for people with permanent and significant disabilities. It aims to empower individuals with disabilities by giving them greater choice and control over the supports and services they receive.

The NDIS provides funding for a range of services and supports, including healthcare, education, employment, social participation, and community access.

Its goal is to assist individuals with disabilities in achieving their goals, improving their independence, and participating fully in society.
