The Minister for the NDIS has made significant NDIS announcements about the future of the Scheme, alongside important budget decisions that could affect people who self-manage and self-direct our NDIS supports. 

Sam Paior and Dr George Taleporos hosted this practical Self Manager Hub workshop and unpacked what the NDIS announcements and budget could mean for self-management and self-direction.

• The Parliamentary processes that need to happen before changes come into effect
• Possible impacts on choice, control, and flexibility 
• What self-managers may need to prepare for 
• The questions we still need government, the NDIA, and the NDIS Commission to answer 
• How our community can raise concerns and advocate for practical solutions
