Capacity Building

Focusing on practical abilities that build confidence and independence.

Skill Development services help participants gain the hands-on abilities needed to live more independently and confidently. From managing a household to learning digital literacy, our programs are designed to be practical, engaging, and tailored to your goals. We focus on teaching skills that can be applied in everyday life, at work, or in the community, ensuring participants feel more capable and empowered.

You may be eligible if:

  • You want to strengthen independence, confidence, and wellbeing
  • You need safe, reliable, and person-centred support services

Age requirements

Our services are generally available for participants aged 7 to 65 under NDIS funding. Children under 7 can access support through early childhood partners. Participants over 65 may be eligible for aged care services or alternative funding programs. If you are unsure, our team will guide you through the right pathway.
