Access
How do you apply?
As a priority cohort, the NDIA is contacting YPIRAC clients to
commence access and planning. NDIA Planners are holding face-to-
face access and planning conversations with the prospective
participants, and if relevant their nominee and/or support person.
If a prospective participant isn’t contacted by the NDIA, the resident
can contact the NDIS on 1800 800 110 and request an Access
Request Form to be sent to test eligibility.
