What is Down Syndrome?
Down syndrome is a genetic condition caused by an extra chromosome 21. It affects learning, growth and development, and is associated with a higher chance of certain health conditions. People with Down syndrome live full lives — at school, in work, with family and in their community — often with the right NDIS supports.
Common challenges people may experience
- Developmental delays in early years
- Speech and communication
- Learning at school and beyond
- Health monitoring (heart, hearing, vision, thyroid)
- Transition to work and independent living
How the NDIS may support people with Down Syndrome
Where Down syndrome causes significant, ongoing impact, the NDIS may fund a tailored mix of supports — including allied health therapies, support workers, support coordination, assistive technology and community participation. Every plan is different and built around the participant's goals. We can help you find providers once your plan is in place.
