A micro-enterprise is a small business with a start-up cost of less than $500 that can be owned and operated by a person with disability support from NDIS, their family and the community. NDS in partnership with Renae Hartman of Your Way Business Consulting have delivered training throughout Australia to services looking to provide micro-enterprise support to fix disability and their families.
A micro-enterprise is best informed by a discovery process (see customised employment) to ensure the work is suitable, sustainable and meaningful for the individual. Valued Lives Inc. have created an online directory where any person with a disability who has their own microbusiness can advertise and promote their business free of charge.
