We help you be a part of your community

Everyone deserves to form valuable friendships, pursue hobbies and explore their local community. Participating in the community is a great way to boost your self-worth, enhance your creativity and build independence.

Whatever your interests are, we will search for places that make your heart happy! From attending a craft group to Dungeons and Dragons, dance or music, day trips to explore or photography – the world is your oyster. We can offer one-on-one support or organise group activities to achieve the goals outlined in your NDIS plan.

GET STARTED

Getting Started with Us is Simple

A 15-Minute Consult

This quick consultation will determine when and how we can help you. We will ask for basic details about you and your situation, along with any current NDIS details or plans you have so we can ensure we are the best people to support you.

Meet & Greet

Meeting you in person is super important to us as we want to ensure you feel safe and comfortable with your assigned support worker. As a smaller, close-knit team, you are always a top priority. No one gets left behind in the Your Kind Collective family.

Making an Action Plan

Once you have made a decision to work with us, we will map out a list of actions that we will go through to bring your plan to life. This helps us to keep on track and to prioritise tasks that need to be completed to connect you to the right supports.

Regular Check-Ins

Once you are fully connected, we will not disappear. We

will check in with you at regular intervals to make sure

you are still happy and that your needs are being met. As

your long-term support team, we are there with you throughout your entire NDIS journey. We perform regular

check-ins to ensure you’re feeling prepared, confident

and capable to face each day. We are always available to

answer any questions that may come up.

Frequently Asked Questions

About Support Coordination

What is Support Coordination?
Support Coordination is funded support provided on a case-by-case basis. This support means you will always have someone there to help you understand what your NDIS plan means (it can be a whole new language!), plan alongside you to find the supports that will best meet your needs, and connect you to those supports.

Once you have established your support network, a Support Coordinator will help you to maintain that network. Another vital role of a Support Coordinator is reporting back to the NDIA when the time comes for your NDIS plan to be reviewed. Above all else, a Support Coordinator is there for you and should always act in your best interests.
Is there a limit on how long I can be funded for Support Coordination?
Usually, Support Coordination funding will reduce over time. This is because a Support Coordinator should be assisting you in learning and building your capacity to navigate the NDIS independently. However, as long as you can demonstrate that you require assistance navigating your NDIS plan, Support Coordination should continue to be funded in your plan. If you feel you require Support Coordination funded in your plan, you can request it from the NDIA. Please contact us to learn more.
Is a Plan Manager the same thing as a Support Coordinator?
No. A Plan Manager is separate funded support and manages the payment of invoices from your other NDIS providers and tracks your plan expenses so that you can ensure your funding lasts for the duration of your NDIS plan.
