This is an introductory workshop for carers about the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS). This session is designed to assist carers to understand what the NDIS is, who is eligible to apply and how to apply for an NDIS package.
First Wednesday of each month 10am – 12noon. Our Strathpine Carer Support Group offers a supportive environment where people have the opportunity to talk about their feelings, help explore alternative ways of coping, offer support to other group members, or to simply listen and observe. Support groups are also a valuable means of informing carers of Arafmi services and resources that are available to assist their caring role.
Connecting with community for you and your family workshop identifies what supports and connections carers need at different points and have the opportunity to learn about community supports, resources and funding that could be beneficial now and in the future for themselves and other family members.
Arafmi would like to acknowledge Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples as Australia’s First People and Traditional Custodians. We value their cultures, identities, and continuing connection to country, waters, kin and community. We pay our respects to Elders past and present and are committed to making a positive contribution to the wellbeing of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people.
