What is Community Participation Under NDIS?

It’s not just about being there. It’s about belonging.

NDIS Community Participation (also called NDIS social participation) refers to funded support that helps participants get involved in social, community, and recreational activities. These NDIS community participation activities might include:

We currently support participants across areas such as:
  • Visiting local libraries or community centres
  • Attending fitness groups or yoga sessions
  • Participating in social clubs or interest-based groups
  • Going shopping or to the movies
  • Volunteering or skill-building workshops
  • Even going out for a walk or coffee with support
It’s all about promoting inclusion, independence, and confidence.

Improved communication

Practice interacting, expressing yourself, and connecting with others.

Mental health benefits
