Social & Community

Support for people to engage in their community, attend social engagements or take part in recreational activities.

​

Assistance with Social and Community Participation (Support Category 4) is a funded support category that you may find in your NDIS plan, under Core Supports.

​

This funding also covers support for activities that are either centre-based or out in the community (e.g. to attend a craft/cooking group) at standard or higher intensity rates.

​

Under Assistance with Social and Community Participation, the NDIS may fund a support worker to support you to:

• attend personal development courses

• join a social group

• take an outing or a holiday

• go on a holiday camp

• visit your local library

• see a movie or a concert

• go to community events, and/or

• join a sporting club.
