How the NDIS Works in Ballarat
The National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) provides funding to Australians with a permanent and significant disability, supporting them to live more independently and participate in the community. Participants are assessed by the NDIA, receive an individualised NDIS plan, and then choose providers to deliver their supports.
In Ballarat, the NDIA has a local area coordinator (LAC) office, and there are a number of plan managers and support coordinators operating in the region. Gentle Grid works with all plan management types — Agency Managed, Plan Managed, and Self Managed — so regardless of how your plan is set up, we can work with you.
If you are new to the NDIS or unsure whether you are eligible, visit our NDIS resources section for guides on eligibility, applying, and getting the most from your plan.
