Parents & Carers
As well as supporting people with disabilities and their families, we believe in developing opportunities for parents and carers to ensure their lives, as well as the lives of those they care for and their immediate families, are enriched. We do this through assisting parents and carers to participate in their local community, foster relationships that strengthen informal networks provide information and support to plan for their future through key stages of life.
1. Caring for the Carer
To overcome some of the barriers that are associated with caring for a family member with a disability, Interchange Illawarra believes in providing holistic support to parents and carers.
2. Workshops & Information
We can provide one-on-one support to parents & carers to assist with the development of visual aids to support communication with the person you care for.
3. We Value Your Feedback
Your feedback, as well as ideas and suggestions for different activities is very much appreciated.

Well this really is good news!!Breaking news out of the NDIS this afternoon ...
And it's some good news on masks 😷
😷 From today NDIS participants who rely on support workers for face to face help every day can claim the cost of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) from their NDIS funds.
But - and this is an important but - this is just for participants in Victoria and New South Wales.
😷 And people who live in their own home and who test positive for COVID-19 and are required to self-isolate or quarantine can now pay for the costs of getting the house cleaned from their NDIS funds.
You can pay for the cleaning and the PPE from your core funds.
If you are plan or Agency managed, you can buy PPE through registered providers.
Self-managed participants can choose where they buy PPE and claim from their funds in their usual way.
