This report contains findings based on all data collections undertaken over the course of the evaluation, including surveys and interviews with NDIS participants, their families and carers, disability support providers, and other stakeholders.
The NDIS was found to work best for participants and families who could “strongly advocate for themselves”, and left people with intellectual and psychosocial disabilities as well as older carers with health issues, at a disadvantage.
The Consolidated Report is structured around the following themes:
- Supply and demand of support services
- The disability sector and its workforce
- Choice and control (including self-management)
- Reasonable and necessary supports
Wellbeing - Participation (social, economic and educational) and aspirations (goals)
- Fairness, equity and access
- Mainstream interface
- Older people with disability
- NDIS in the Northern Territory (Barkly trial site and Alice Springs)
- Topics:
