This conference will present local, national and international approaches that support meaningful and
inclusive lives for people with disabilities. It will identify strategies that enable people to make the most of
self-managing National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) funding.
The introduction of the NDIS in Canberra commenced in July 2013 and has opened up opportunities for
individuals with a disability and their families to direct their supports in a way that enables people to achieve
their hopes and dreams.
This conference will share ideas how to:

Self-manage their funding

Support people with a disability to live socially-valued lives

Form successful relationships with services

Learn advocacy tips

Find meaningful employment

Harness opportunities to deepen relationships

Directly employ people

Transition successfully into and within inclusive educational settings in local schools

Prepare for a conversation with lawyers around trusts and wills

Coordinate supports

Create a home of their own

Support people from CALD backgrounds

Join us in August to explore how every person with a disability can

plan towards realising their dreams.
