Agency: Australian Government – National Disability Insurance Agency (NDIA)

Closing: 9 August 2024

Eligibility: Community-based, disability-led organisations who run existing peer support and self-advocacy programs

The National Disability Insurance Agency (NDIA) is seeking to support operationally ready organisations to increase the skills, knowledge, and confidence of people with disability, their families, and carers to access and navigate disability, health, and other community services and activities.

This grant is opened to operationally ready small businesses (businesses with fewer than 15 FTE employees), who deliver Peer Support and Capacity Building services or programs and employee people with disability, preferably with an employee base of 50% or more of people with disability.

Innovation will come from projects being designed with and informed by participants and people with lived experience. People with disability must be involved in the design and implementation of the grant activities.

Up to $500,000 per year is available from Financial Years 2024-25 to 2025-26, with 2026-27 as a discretionary extension.
