What can LEAD do for me or my family member?#faq-content-1472194655045

We provide capacity building supports to gain and build the skills needed to lead a fulfilling life. Within this area we can provide a range of supports specific to each individual. If you tell us the circumstances of your story, we will tell you what we can offer for you. 

How do I become a client at LEAD?#faq-content-1472194660905

There are different pathways and a few things you need to do before you can become a client. Due to things such as NDIS funding, and because everyone's story is unique, the best thing to do is give us a call or make contact so we can guide you.

Do you have a waiting list?#faq-content-1483397171606

No, we don't. But to be eligible to be a client with LEAD you need to have access to specific government funding such as the NDIS or Centrelink. If you're not sure how you can get funding, give us a call to discuss your story.

What types of contracting work do you offer?#faq-content-1483397199517

We have a range of established contracts that continue all year round, but there are also lots of unique, short-term contacts too. The best thing to do is give us a call to ask what is currently available.

Are all your staff specifically trained to help people with disabilities?#faq-content-1483397209338
