To whom it may concern
I would be happy to participate in this inquiry.
My son became a quadriplegic earlier this year and as a result we became participants in NDIS.
We have had some interesting and challenging interactions with the scheme leaving us feeling very anxious about having to go through this all again next month when they do my son’s plan review.
There is very little support or understanding for individuals with ‘new’ disabilities, there is a lot of assumption that you know what you need.
The specialist writing recommendations for my son were not given training in how to write recommendations for NDIS and this alone was a significant impact on the outcome.
Anyway, if you would like another families experience going through the ACT branch of NDIS we are more than willing to participate.
Yours sincerely
Maria and Jackson Sievers
