NDIS Community Participation Support Services In Perth
What Is NDIS Community Participation?
NDIS Community Participation support helps eligible participants access and take part in social, recreational and community activities that matter to them.
Everyone’s idea of meaningful participation is different. For some, it may mean attending a local event, joining a hobby group or spending time with others. For others, it may mean accessing community facilities, taking part in recreational activities or simply having the right support to get out and about.
At Achieve Disability Care, we provide personalised community participation support to help participants stay connected and actively involved in their community.

Community Participation Based on What Matters to You
Community participation looks different for everyone.
Some people enjoy group activities and social events, while others prefer quieter outings, individual activities or one-to-one support. That’s why we take the time to understand what matters to you.
Our approach is person-centred and shaped around your interests, preferences and support needs. We work with you to identify activities and community experiences that you genuinely enjoy and want to be part of.
The goal is simple: helping you participate in ways that are meaningful to you.
Can NDIS Funding Be Used for Community Participation?
Depending on your individual NDIS plan and available funding, you may be able to use your funding for supports that help you access and participate in social and community activities.
The type of support available depends on your individual circumstances, goals and approved NDIS supports.
If you’re unsure whether your plan can be used for Community Participation, our team can help you understand the support options available to you.

Why Is Community Participation Important?
Being part of the community means different things to different people. It may involve spending time with others, enjoying hobbies, attending local events or simply having the opportunity to get out and experience new places.
Community Participation support can make these experiences more accessible by providing the assistance participants need to take part comfortably and safely.
Regular opportunities to participate can also help people stay connected with their interests, relationships and local community.

How Our Community Participation Support Works
How Is Community Participation Different From Other NDIS Supports?
While several NDIS supports may contribute to greater independence and wellbeing, they each have a different primary focus.
Community Participation vs Innovative Community Participation
Community Participation focuses on providing support to access and take part in social activities, recreational experiences and community life.
Innovative Community Participation has a stronger focus on building skills, confidence and capacity that may help participants become more independent in social and community settings over time.
If your primary goal is to build your confidence and participation skills for greater independence, explore our Innovative Community Participation service.
Community Participation vs Development & Support Life Skills
Community Participation focuses on helping participants access and take part in activities and experiences within their community.
Development & Support Life Skills focuses more on practical everyday skills that can support greater independence in daily life.
If your primary goal is to develop practical skills for everyday and independent living, explore our Development & Support Life Skills service
