FAQs
The National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) has been developed to improve choice and create better outcomes for people with a disability. NDIS funds any goal that you set for yourself (those that NDIS considers reasonable and necessary) and you are free to choose any NDIS service provider you want.
The National Disability Insurance Agency (NDIA) is a federally appointed organisation that manages the administration of all NDIS funding. They are funded by the Department of Social Services (DSS).
The NDIS provides ongoing funding for all ‘reasonable and necessary’ disability equipment, care and support services. Generally, the supports and services provided to you assist you to achieve your goals and live as independently as possible.
You can get in touch with Brace Support Services by phone, email, Facebook or by filling out the contact form on our website. Our friendly team will be happy to answer any questions you may have and assist you with booking NDIS services.

The NDIA is tasked with assessment of your eligibility to participate in the NDIS. The following are the eligibility criteria:
- Be under the age of 65 years at the time of applying
- Be a resident of Australia (Australian citizen, or Permanent Visa Holder or a New Zealand citizen who holds a Protected Special Category Visa)
- Have a condition or an impairment that is permanent and prevents you from participating in everyday activities
If you are over the age of 65 years at the time of your application, then you will not be eligible to participate in the NDIS. You might be eligible for funding by the Aged Care System, instead.
