Description
In the context of the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS), goals refer to the personalised objectives, aspirations, and outcomes that individuals with disabilities aim to achieve with the support provided through the NDIS. Setting goals provides a tangible way to measure progress. It allows individuals with disabilities to track their progress and evaluate what has been achieved with the help of NDIS-funded support. Goals play a pivotal role in the NDIS planning process. They guide discussions and decisions about the support and services required by the participant. Goals help in determining the type, duration, and intensity of support needed to assist the participant in achieving their desired outcomes. Most importantly, goals embody the NDIS principle of ‘choice and control,’ allowing individuals with disabilities to steer their lives in directions that are meaningful to them.
NDIS goals are the heart of a participant’s plan, serving as the guiding principles that shape the support and services provided. These goals aren’t just limited to disability-specific support. They encompass various aspects of an individual’s life, including but not limited to education, employment, social engagement, personal development, and community participation. Setting goals in your NDIS plan is not a one-time event. It is an ongoing dialogue between the participant, their support network, and NDIS providers. As circumstances change or new aspirations arise, goals may evolve. For example, participants striving for greater independence may use Plan Management to handle their NDIS budget while still maintaining control over their funds. This aligns with the goal of developing the skills needed to manage their supports independently. Additionally, participants who wish to focus more on their goals and less on administrative tasks might use Plan Management to handle the paperwork, payments, and interactions with service providers. This supports the goal of reducing administrative burden and freeing up time for other pursuits.
