What is Intellectual Disability?
Intellectual disability affects learning, reasoning and everyday skills. It often begins in childhood and ranges from mild to profound. The NDIS commonly funds long-term support for people with an intellectual disability across daily living, learning, social and accommodation needs.
Common challenges people may experience
- Learning new skills and understanding complex information
- Communicating wants and needs
- Managing money, shopping and appointments
- Living independently or semi-independently
- Building friendships and community connections
How the NDIS may support people with Intellectual Disability
Where intellectual disability 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.
