Session

GPS needed for the road ahead

Time: 2:30pm - 3:30pm

Location: The Hall

Facilitated by: Colleen Furlanetto, Chair of Victorian Disability Advisory Council

The sector lobbied hard to retain independent advocacy by remaining outside the NDIS. Anecdotally, it’s acknowledged that participants achieve better outcomes through their interaction with the Agency by seeking advocacy assistance- but what will advocacy look like in the new NDIS landscape? This panel will identify the pot holes and road blocks ahead where advocacy might be called upon to hold the system to account. Might advocacy prove to be the most effective GPS for the NDIS?
