Disability care and support will meet nationally consistent standards; Disability care and support will be sustainably resourced; and Disability care and support will contribute to governments’ commitments to closing the gap on Indigenous disadvantage. The objectives for the NDIS are set out in the National Disability Insurance Scheme Act 2013 (NDIS Act). The objects of the NDIA Act are to: in conjunction with other laws, give effect to Australia’s obligations under the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities done at New York on 13 December 2006 ([2008] ATS 12); provide for the National Disability Insurance Scheme in Australia; support the independence and social and economic participation of people with disability; provide reasonable and necessary supports, including early intervention supports, for participants in the National Disability Insurance Scheme launch; enable people with disability to exercise choice and control in the pursuit of their goals and the planning and delivery of their supports; facilitate the development of a nationally consistent approach to the access to, and the planning and funding of, supports for people with disability; promote the provision of high quality and innovative supports that enable people with disability to maximise independent lifestyles and full inclusion in the mainstream community; raise community awareness of the issues that affect the social and economic participation of people with disability, and facilitate greater community inclusion of people with disability; and in conjunction with other laws, give effect to certain obligations that Australia has as a party to: the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights done at New York on 16 December 1966 ([1980] ATS 23); the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights done at New York on 16 December 1966 ([1976] ATS 5); the Convention on the Rights of the done at New York on 20 November 1989 ([1991] ATS 4); the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination Against Women done at New York on 18 December 1979 ([1983] ATS 9); and the International Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Racial Discrimination done at New York on 21 December 1965 ([1975] ATS 40). These objects are to be achieved by: providing the foundation for governments to work together to develop and implement the National Disability Insurance Scheme launch; and adopting an insurancebased approach, informed by actuarial analysis, to the provision and funding of supports for people with disability.
NDIS FUNDED THERAPY AND SCHOOLS CONTENTS Introduction 3 the NDIS 3 Key considerations for schools 4 Making a Request 7 Parent(s)/carer(s) role 9 Further information 9 Introduction The Department of Education and Training (the Department) supports National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) participants, their families and carers to make the most of the benefits offered by the NDIS. This includes schools providing general information about the NDIS or providing copies of school reports that may assist with NDIS access and planning processes. Victorian Government schools are also encouraged to support students and their parent(s) or carer(s) in exercising a level of choice and control with their NDIS supports at school where it is safe and practical to do so. For example, may request that an NDIS funded therapist: observes child in the classroom or in the school environment; or attends a Student Support Group meeting, to monitor and tailor the support they provide to their child. In most cases, the school can support both these requests. Parent(s)/carer(s) may also consider making a request for their child’s NDIS funded therapist to deliver therapy regularly at school. These requests can raise some practical, legal, and educational issues for schools that require careful consideration. The decision to approve these requests rests with the school principal in consultation with the School Council. The Department has prepared these guidelines to give families and NDIS funded therapists information on the process for making a request, and the factors that a school must consider when assessing the request.
Your family and carers can help you choose if you want them to. What is the National Disability Insurance Agency (NDIA)? The National Disability Insurance Agency is also called the NDIA. The NDIA has the job of making the NDIS work properly. The NDIA can tell you how the NDIS will work and what help you can get.

report unless the employee agrees. Employers may have entered a binding agreement not to disclose past misconduct as part of a FWA conciliation process. Employers may give a positive report even where misconduct had occurred. Criminal convictions High – while a relatively small proportion of applicants are likely to have convictions, they may be extremely important in assessing risk In part Excludes spent and quashed convictions, juvenile offences, etc. Assessing relevance of a conviction to the job requires good judgment – people who know the employee may unwisely choose to discount past history, while other employers may be unduly risk averse ‘Enhanced’ police information – – for offences alleged to have been committed, regardless of the outcome of those charges, such as acquittals, dismissed, withdrawn and pending charges convictions, High - experience with working with children checks suggests that a small but significant number of people with adverse information that would not be disclosed in a standard police check will apply for clearance No Protected for privacy reasons, may only be accessed by approved Government screening agencies.

The options modelled were those set out in the Consultation RIS. The data was not included in the text of the RIS as it should be regarded as broadly indicative only, given the poor quality of the base data it relies on, and the difficulty of estimating likely impacts of
on the provision of supporting evidence that their relocation was for a legitimate reason (ie employment, education, family support, etc). Any person who is deemed eligible for NDIS, who subsequently moves out of the Launch site, for whatever reason, should be entitled to portability of funding. Question 6: What boundary issues between launch and non-launch locations are likely to arise, and how could these be resolved in developing the rules? The boundaries around launch locations need to be clearly articulated. People are then assessed for eligibility in accordance with the residence requirement. Continuity of Support Question 7: What factors should be considered in deciding whether the NDIS should provide continuity of support to someone who has been receiving assistance under other programs, but who would not otherwise be eligible for NDIS support? Any person who was receiving support under existing programs as at 1 July 2013 should be entitled to ongoing support through the NDIS, regardless of timeframes in order to satisfy the no disadvantage clause. It would be considered unlikely that there is sufficient resource in the current system to shoehorn otherwise ineligible participants into a funded program prior to the introduction of NDIS purely to allow them to retain services they may otherwise be ineligible for under an NDIS. People who are blind or vision impaired will be highly unlikely to be captured by the recommendation in the above paragraph. People who access blindness and vision impairment services primarily do so on a periodic (episodic) basis. They will receive a service, develop a skill set and then exist the service to utilise the acquired skill set as and when required. They may re-access the service to develop further skills, enhance current skills, or perhaps engage with new equipment or services. People who access services in such a manner should not be penalised because they do not have a structured ongoing service program. Therefore ABF recommends that any person who has received services from a recognised service provider in the blindness and low vision sector within the last 3-5 years, should automatically be entitled to ongoing support through NDIS. Careful consideration needs to be given to ensure that the no disadvantage process applies to people with disability who are receiving supports related specifically to their disability from sources that are not government funded. For example, where a person is receiving services provided for through philanthropy or volunteerism, they
Sector Development Fund projects Through the Commonwealth’s Sector Development Fund, a number of not for profit organisations have been funded to help the disability services sector get ready for the NDIS. The projects focus on developing the sector as a whole, including people with disability, their families, carers and providers. Information about completed projects is available on the NDIS web site. The resources include practice change and service delivery resources, operational tools, workforce planning resources and change management resources. Costing and Pricing advice Organisations will need to establish, and operate under, a market based, competitive, model prior to the NDIS commencing in their region. This practical Costing and Pricing Learning Program aims to increase costing and pricing skills for disability service providers across Australia. It has been developed by NDS and the Curtin University Not-for-profit Initiative. Visit
AT: Dam Removal Saves Money Their studies are biased Keppen 2002 Dan Keppen, Executive Director Family Farm Alliance, “Cast a Wary Eye on Dam Removal Economic Studies,” Just last month, another economic report addressing the Columbia River system was¶ trumpeted by anti-dam activist groups in Western urban papers. It suggested that¶ removing four dams on the Lower Snake River – a tributary to the Columbia - could¶ realize between $4.2 billion and $24.4 billion in savings and increased economic activity¶ over 20 years. The report consists of compiled numbers from an array of already published¶ (and some discredited) studies from interest groups, government agencies and¶ the Yakama Nation, while adding analysis from the interest groups that authored it.¶ According to an analysis prepared by Northwest RiverPartners, the Snake River report¶ makes “numerous fictional claims and advocates for a narrow, special interest of¶ removing a critical, reliable and renewable energy resource: the Lower Snake River¶ dams.”

providing structured objectives, frequent feedback and personal development sessions; and training on presentation, team working and networking skills. Peter had demonstrated an ability to rapidly acquire new creative and technical skills and pass these abilities on to other staff. He also leads by example in terms of productivity, commitment and willingness to learn. Colleagues were training around autism and working with colleagues with autism, which has been supportive for Peter but also helped improve quality and customer service. Supporting colleagues If the person with autism consents to their condition being disclosed, then providing colleagues with information and guidance on autism can benefit everyone. Sometimes the employee may find it helpful to write a document for other staff explaining what their colleagues can do to support them. Research illustrates that some people with autism felt their colleagues/employers needed training to help understand the condition and why they act in a certain way. Autism should also be included within the organisation’s general disability awareness training. Employers can also avail of autism awareness training and materials that have been previously been funded by the Department of Justice and Equality. Suggested actions Employers and colleagues may require information about autism and what supports are needed in the workplace. Ensure all staff have access to disability awareness training and that it includes a focus on autism as well as mental health. Case Study 3 Before Mary joined the team, her company held an autism awareness-raising day for those who would be working with and around her; so that they were aware of issues she might have in the workplace and ways to deal positively with these. The company had scoped out the core functions they needed Mary to perform and then adapted that by adding additional responsibilities based on her comfort level, capacity and capability. Mary’s placement was a great success, she fitted in well with colleagues and she was able to increase her duties as she settled into the role. Conclusion Raising awareness about autism is essential in order to change attitudes towards it. It is important that line managers and HR professionals are

First we talk about defining your baseline – where does your organization currently stand in terms of its social media activity, and how does that stack up against other agencies doing similar work? We then dive deeper in to what kinds of engagement activities are important to track and how you can search keywords and hashtags to follow digital conversations over time. Second, we walk through how to measure your organization’s activity on Facebook and Twitter. As part of this training, we have created a customized dashboard you can use to track your social media activity. This section focuses on how to pull data from Twitter and Facebook, and then plug that data in to the dashboard to track your activity over time.
