What are your capital supports?
Capacity support enables NDIS participants to build their independence and skills through the help and guidance of providers. NDIS participants’ budgets are allocated at different support category levels to help them build up their capacity to achieve their goals. Services under capacity supports may include therapists such as occupational therapy, speech therapy, psychology, behavioral therapy, counseling, and job network.
There are 9 support categories under capacity support:
Coordination of Supports

Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference.
