mecwacare works with clients and their families to develop skills and increase their ability to live as independently as possible. Our Support Coordination team offers a range of in-home and community access options tailored to clients’ individual needs and choices.
Supports include informal, mainstream and community support, as well as clients’ NDIS-funded supports. It is time-limited and aims to support an NDIS participant to take part in the community. Support Coordination is a role funded by the NDIS.
