Assistance with Social and Community Participation

​

Assistance with Social and Community Participation (Support Category 4) is a funded support category that you may find in your NDIS plan, under Core Supports.

​

This funding covers the SUPPORT NDIS participants need to meet goals relating to participating in community, social or recreational activities. These activities may be provided in a center or in a community setting.

All supports funded under this item need to be determined as reasonable and necessary given the participant’s plan goals.

You could use this funding for a Disability Support Worker to support you to travel to and attend a music concert.

This funding also covers support for activities that are either center-based or out in the community(e.g. to attend a gardening group) at standard or higher intensity rates.

Under Assistance with Social and Community Participation, the NDIS may fund a support worker to support you to:

​

  • Attend personal development courses

​

  • Join a social group

​

  • Take an outing or a holiday

​

  • Go on a holiday camp

​

  • Visit your local library

​
