If you or someone you know is affected by a mental health condition you may be entitled to NDIS (National Disability Insurance Scheme) support.
Being eligible for NDIS means that you will have a personalised plan, with access to a range of personalised free supports and services through HelpingMinds. Please note that NDIS is available for 0 to 65 year olds.
If you think you may be eligible please get in touch and we can guide you through the application form or give us a call.
If you already have your NDIS plan in place contact us to find out what services are available to you.
