Specialist Support Coordination
Community Connections is a registered provider of NDIS Specialist Support Coordination (also known as Level 3 Coordination). Our Specialist Support Coordination team members assist people with disability with exceptionally complex support needs to reduce participation barriers and overcome challenges to achieving their NDIS goals. We help people to access a broad range of direct supports, make empowering connections and increase their involvement with communities of their choice.Specialist Support Coordination (SSC) is a more intensive form of NDIS support coordination. It is provided by skilled coordinators who may have a high-level professional qualification, an allied health, community or social work background, personal or professional experience of psychosocial disability, or other extensive, appropriate and relevant expertise over many years. SSC is funded through the NDIS for participants with particularly complex life circumstances. Participants may have exceptionally high support needs involving many different mainstream and disability-related services or find themselves in a crisis situation.
