This talk is for parents/carers who are considering intensive early autism behavioural services (20+ hours a week) for their child. The talk will help you understand the steps involved in securing funding for these intensive services.

Shannon Eeles, Autism Partnership’s CEO, will share practical information and years of knowledge and experience so that you can better understand the NDIS process and advocate for your child’s needs. The talk will cover:

• The pathway to funding for intensive services – Shannon will briefly touch on how to become an NDIS participant and the planning process.
• It is very common that when families are considering more intensive services, they do not yet have the funding for these services. Shannon will talk in detail about what to do if your current plan is not enough to cover the cost of more intensive services, including how to request a review of your plan, how to navigate the appeals process and provide an overview of published appeals outcomes.
• Opportunity to ask questions.

Who is this talk suitable for?

For parents or carers of children up to 6 years old looking for intensive behavioural services.
