New Supported Decision-Making Hub Launched!
Inclusion Australia, in partnership with the National Disability Insurance Agency (NDIA) and the Department of Social Services (DSS), has unveiled a new online resource, the Supported Decision-Making Hub.
This dedicated website serves as a comprehensive platform for providers, offering tools and information to support individuals in making informed decisions about their lives.
The Supported Decision-Making Hub is designed to empower people with disabilities by providing resources that facilitate decision-making in key areas such as NDIS planning, employment, health, and accommodation.
The content is organised across 12 distinct categories and equips providers with accessible guidance to help individuals take greater control over their goals and supports.
Supported decision-making focuses on assisting people to make choices that align with their aspirations, ensuring they have a stronger voice in matters that matter most to them.
A short introductory video, “Introducing the Supported Decision-Making Hub,” is available here: https://youtu.be/cRsaFTPfigk
This video shows how participants, their families, carers and providers can navigate and use the Hub’s resources effectively. It ensures the importance of everyone’s right to make decisions about their own lives and highlights efforts to make the NDIS more user-friendly.
We encourage you to explore the Hub and stay updated by subscribing to Inclusion Australia’s monthly email newsletter for the latest news and developments.
