What we do
Support Coordination is a capacity-building service funded by the NDIS. Depending on your circumstances, this service may be included in your NDIS plan. We take a participant-led and capacity-building approach in supporting you to live your best life autonomously. Our Support Coordinators have extensive experience in the NDIS and working within the community.
Who it's for
Participants who have our Support Coordination services included in their NDIS plan. Participants who want to be provided with support and guidance to take the stress and burden out of understanding and implementing their NDIS plan.
We provide Level 2 Support Coordination and Level 3 Specialist Support Coordination.
How we assist you
We work with you to build the skills you need to understand, implement, and use your plan. We also use a mix of supports to increase your capacity to maintain relationships, manage service delivery tasks, live more independently, and be included in your community. We also locate opportunities for you to engage with the local community and community-based services.
When we are available
You can contact us Monday to Friday from 9am to 4:30pm

What the team's been working on
We are proud to see how rapidly our service has grown since its launch in 2021.
Stories
A participant recently commented that everyone in her life has always let her down (they say they will do things or help her but it never happens), except the ladies at Blue Sky, who always fulfil what they say they will do, and now she feels her voice is always heard.
