14.01.2022 There's more to say after R U OK? 2020 has been a challenging year for everyone and circumstances have made it even more important for us all to stay connected and, for those who are able, be willing to support those around us. ‘There’s more to say after R U OK?’, is the message for R U OK?Day 2020 (Thursday 10 September) and will focus on building confidence and increased skills for people so they know how to navigate a conversation with someone in their life who might be st...ruggling. By asking, listening with an open mind, encouraging action and checking in, you can help family, friends or colleagues through a tough time. Learn what to say after R U OK? at www.ruok.org.au

07.01.2022 Some more breaking news from the NDIS this afternoon ... The NDIA have released some more information today about the introduction of compulsory NDIS assessment...s. This afternoon they released more information about the first trial of the assessment process. And they have released some short information about six of the tools that will be used during the assessments. They have also announced that a second trial using these tools will start up again in October. This trial was cancelled earlier in the year as a result of COVID19. There is a bit to look at so we are still working our way through. In the meantime you can check it out by following the links below.

03.01.2022 The CEO of the NDIA Martin Hoffman has just released an open letter to all NDIS participants. The letter is about the planned introduction of compulsory assessm...ents for every single new and existing NDIS participant. The letter does not contain any new information about the assessments. Nor does it address some of the key questions we have all been emailing the Minister. The letter has been released ahead of Mr Hoffman giving evidence to the Joint Standing Committee into the NDIS this afternoon. You can read the letter on the NDIS website - https://www.ndis.gov.au//5356-improving-national-disabilit There is an Easy Read version of the letter - https://www.ndis.gov.au//5356-improving-national-disabilit And if you haven't already, there is still time to email the Minister. You can draft your own letter or use ours.
