At the core of the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) is the principle that people with a disability may participate socially in their communities.

The NDIS recognises that social participation can lead to a range of benefits, including:

Positive contribution to an individual’s sense of wellbeing, helping to bring balance in their lives
Improved wellbeing outcomes in relation to health, employment, education and life satisfaction
Enhanced ‘social capital’, through community engagement, building awareness and creating an understanding of diversity
Building networks to sustain informal care and support arrangements
Promotion of inclusion of all people, to break down stereotypes and barriers and aim to develop personal skills and capacity for engagement in a variety of activities, to ensure that their social participation is meaningful.
