The NDIS has good intentions, but its design doesn’t seem to support the unique needs of Indigenous people living with a disability, particularly if they’re living in remote communities.
People with mental illness as well as an intellectual disability find it harder to receive sufficient NDIS supports.

The NDIS aims to help people with disability live more independently. It was hoped this would reduce carers’ responsibilities and allow them more time to work. But evidence shows this hasn’t happened.
The majority of NDIS participants are happy with the support they’ve received under the scheme.
