Specialist Support Coordination

Assistance for participants with complex disability support needs to navigate the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) and to work effectively with stakeholders and people in your life. We work from a strengths perspective to identify your needs, personalise your supports and make sure you are matched with the right services. We work closely with your supports, friends and family to build capacity, to understand and implement your plan, to coordinate your supports and strengthen your informal networks. At The Way Forward, Specialist Support Coordination is delivered by Amy Gammon, who is a social worker with more than a decade’s experience in supporting people with disabilities using a specialist framework, Some of the ways we night help you include:
