Rejecting the Too Hard Basket: Creating life possibilities with people with complex needs 

Does any of this sound familiar?

• The person I know has limited communication
• It’s hard to tell what they are interested in, or their interests seem very limiting
• Nobody seems to be able to ‘see past the behaviour’
• The person I know seems de-motivated and stuck
• Words like “They’re no walk in the park” sound very familiar!

The NDIS is an opportunity for reasonable and necessary supports that help people achieve life goals.

The idea of life goals means thinking about the possibilities we want for ourselves.

How can we make this a reality for everyone?

This webinar connects you with two people who have found themselves in the ‘too hard’ basket, but have rejected this in favour of life affirming possibilities.
