Goods, services, supports and assistance available to the general public which are not funded by the NDIS.
Community supports and services include social, study, leisure or sporting that are available in the community from local non-government groups such as men’s sheds or playgroups.
Other government supports and services include health, mental health, early childhood, school education, higher education, justice, transport, housing, child protection and family support, and employment services.
When describing other government supports and services, where possible, it is best to be descriptive about the specific kind of support you are referring to instead of the overarching term – so use ‘health, education, housing’, etc.
