Resources for young people with disability, and parents of children with disability, to support them through major life changes.

Creating Supports at School

All schools have a legal responsibility to support your child’s learning and participation. Learn about your rights and how to start a conversation with your school.

Applying for NDIS

The NDIS may help fund supports for your child, but applying can take time.

Getting a Diagnosis

Getting a diagnosis can help explain your child’s needs and connect you with support. But the process can take time and isn’t always straightforward.
