If you have a disability you may be receiving Individualised Funding or you may be eligible for it. This is an area of significant change and innovation.
There are organisations contracted by the Ministry of Health to support people using Individualised Funding.
You must be able to manage the range of services that you need, or have someone you trust who agrees to manage the services for you.
There are eligibility requirements, so check with your local Needs Assessment and Service Coordination (NASC) service.
Possibly. The impact of Individualised Funding on your housing and future housing opportunities needs to be discussed with your support workers or the Ministry of Health.
Talk to your local Needs Assessment and Service Coordination (NASC) service.
