The forum was one of a series that the National Disability and Carers Alliance - comprised of the Australian Federation of Disability Organisations, Carers Australia, and National Disability Services - in conjunction with People with Disability Australia is holding around the country to discuss some of the design elements of the NDIS. This project, funded by FaHCSIA, is to make sure people with a disability, their families and carers and service providers have the chance to have their say about what is important to them as the NDIS is design and implemented.
