Planning practical steps for an upcoming change or transition
Plan life changes with practical, goal-focused support.
Life changes can bring new decisions, routines and responsibilities. This service provides practical, participant-led assistance to plan for transitions, build confidence and stay connected with the people and supports that matter.
Together, we can break larger changes into manageable steps, identify practical supports and develop routines that reflect your NDIS goals. We work at your pace and include family, carers or other chosen supports where you would like them involved.
How we can support you
Practical support, shaped around you.
Examples are discussed and agreed with each participant. The exact support provided depends on individual goals, funding, preferences and the service agreement.
Building routines for a new home, study, work or community setting
Organising appointments and connecting with relevant supports
Strengthening decision-making, scheduling and self-advocacy skills
Working with your chosen support network to maintain continuity
Who may benefit
Support connected to real-life goals.
This service may suit participants working towards greater independence, preparing for a change in living arrangements, moving from school into adult life, exploring study or work, or adjusting routines after a significant life change.
Flexible by design
Support arrangements are discussed around your individual circumstances and preferences.
