NDIS Assistance with Daily Life FAQ

What are social and community activities?

Social and community activities cover diverse events and programs encouraging individuals to connect with their community. They promote social interaction, relationships, and inclusion. Examples include club memberships, cultural events, sports, volunteering, workshops, and recreational outings. These activities are essential for building social bonds, personal development, and a sense of belonging in the community.

What can I use increased social and community participation for?

Increased social and community participation, as supported by the NDIS, can be utilised for a variety of purposes aimed at improving an individual’s overall well-being and quality of life. Some common uses of increased social and community participation funding include:

  • Building social skills and engaging in social activities
  • Actively participating in community life.

What is an example of social and community participation?

An example of social and community participation could be a person with a disability joining a local community art class. In this scenario, the individual actively engages in a social and creative environment, interacts with fellow participants, and contributes to their community through artistic expression.

This participation not only fosters social connections but also promotes personal growth and the development of creative skills. It exemplifies how individuals can enhance their quality of life by actively participating in community activities aligned with their interests and goals.
