If you need any help understanding or using your plan you will find the my NDIS contact details on the front page of your plan. There are two sections in the plan that are all about achieving your goals, making it a clearer and more user-friendly format. 1. “How will I achieve this goal” – this will help you with attaining your goals. And 2.
“How will I be supported?” – this will help you understand who will support you with this goal. The goals in your plan will also be matched up with the different funded supports: Core, Capacity-building and Capital. Some people might have one funded support and others may have all three.
