What is NDIS Capacity Building?
Capacity Building Supports help NDIS participants to develop skills and abilities, enabling them to become more independent and actively participate in their community. This can be achieved by providing access to services like therapy. training and education.
What are core supports?
Supports that enable participants to complete activities of daily living. Participant budgets often have a lot of flexibility to choose specific supports with their core support budgets, but cannot reallocate this funding for other support purposes (i.e., capital or capacity building supports).

Meet Casira, Owner of Ochre Care
As an Aboriginal woman and Allied Health (Social Work) Practitioner, I bring a person-centred approach with a deep commitment to improving the lives of people living with disability. I also am committed to helping Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples. Having lived and worked in remote areas of Australia, I have a first-hand understanding of the unique challenges that come with limited access to services in these regions.
I bring extensive experience across various roles within the disability sector, giving me a holistic understanding of how to best support individuals, families, and communities. My previous roles include Disability Support Worker and Support Coordinator (Not-for-Profit). My most recent roles were as Case Manager and Clinician with Disability Services, Qld Government working with individuals and families to access the NDIS, including supporting incarcerated individuals and those in very remote Aboriginal communities.
