What Is NDIS Support Coordination? Do You Need It?

Support coordination is a Capacity Building support that helps you understand and implement your NDIS plan. A support coordinator:

• Helps you understand your plan and what it funds
• Connects you with appropriate service providers
• Coordinates multiple providers to work together
• Helps you build your capacity to manage your own supports over time
• Assists during crises or when things aren't working

There are three levels of support coordination:

1. Support Connection — light touch, helps you find providers
2. Coordination of Supports — the most common level, ongoing coordination
3. Specialist Support Coordination — for complex situations requiring specialist expertise
