NDIS support coordination on the Gold Coast, in Brisbane and the Tweed

Help to understand your NDIS plan, find the right providers and make your funding work for you, from a registered NDIS provider.

What support coordination involves

A support coordinator helps you understand your NDIS plan, connect with the right providers and use your funding well. The aim is for you to feel more confident managing your own supports over time.

Understanding your plan

We go through your plan with you in plain English so you know what is funded and how it can be used.

Finding the right providers

We help you find providers that suit your goals, location and preferences, and connect you with them.

Service agreements and bookings

We help set up service agreements and service bookings so supports can start smoothly.

Keeping an eye on your budget

We help you track spending so your funding lasts for the length of your plan.

Preparing for plan reassessment

We gather the reports and evidence needed and help you get ready for your next plan.

Linking with other services

We connect you with health, housing, education and community services alongside your NDIS supports.

Who it is for

Support coordination is for NDIS participants who have Support Coordination funding in their plan, along with their families, carers and nominees.

Common questions

What is the difference between a support coordinator and an LAC?

A Local Area Coordinator helps people access the NDIS and develop their plan. A support coordinator is funded in your plan to help you put it into action and manage your supports.

I do not have support coordination funding. Can you still help?

Support coordination can only be delivered when it is funded in your plan. If you think you need it, we can explain how to raise it at your next plan reassessment.

Can I change support coordinator?

Yes. You can choose your support coordinator and change at any time, following the notice period in your service agreement.

How do I check your registration?
