Go step by step

Tell your story

The next step is to tell your story in the best way possible. Your story should revolve around your personal details, so try to give as much detail as possible to give the planner a sense of what your daily life is like. Inform your planner about your living situation, if you have a job or not, your hobbies and interests, and how you get around.

Have Clear Goals

While narrating your story, it is essential to focus on your goals. Your goals are one of the most significant parts of your NDIS plan and your planning meeting because you will receive funding or support based on your goals. So take some time and write them down beforehand.

Take A Break

Certainly, meetings usually take a full hour or more. Taking breaks in between is really a healthy practice especially during long meetings. During the break you can jot down potential questions you would like to ask or discuss with your support person about some relevant information.

It makes easy for planners to understand the functional impact of your disability and the personal circumstances of your everyday life.
