🚨 NDIS Change 2025 🚨

From 19 May 2025, new and reassessed NDIS plans switch to three-month funding periods instead of receiving the full budget upfront.
Not sure how this will affect your plan? The Y Inclusion Services team can help you understand the change, plan your supports, and keep your funding on track.
This means:
* Same total funding, released in smaller portions
* Easier to spread spending across the year
* More regular budget check-ins with your Support Coordinator or Plan Manager
