🚸 Thriving Kids - Fragile System ☕ … Put simply: Thriving Kids isn’t replacing Foundational Supports but it leans heavily on them. The government’s $2 billion plan will move children with mild to moderate autism and developmental delays out of the NDIS and into schools, GPs, Medicare checks and community programs. The problem? Kids are already being removed from the scheme but the “safety net” of Foundational Supports is still unfinished, under-funded and not yet in place. Ultimately leaving providers in limbo and families without certainty.

For those providers built around early childhood supports, it may be time to consider your strategy moving forward, perhaps expanding offerings or looking outside of the NDIS. Or start to look for partners to put forward a consortiam response to increase your chances of success in the grant process, if there is a grant process…Keep going, look for a way forward, what you do is too valuable to close your doors, take the time to consider the options.
