Increased Social and Community Participation

---

This support budget enables you to build on your independence skills.

There are nine Capacity building support categories. You will not automatically receive funding for all nine but only for those that suit your needs and circumstances. The goals outlined in your National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) plan determine which categories you receive funding for.
