Community Participation NDIS
Building Inclusive Communities Through Community Participation NDIS
At Hyre Support Coordination, we think that community participation is critical for promoting independence, developing meaningful relationships, and improving the quality of life for people with disabilities. Our specialised programs under the NDIS are intended to help participants connect with their communities, pursue their interests, and achieve their particular goals.
Understanding the NDIS Social and Community Participation
NDIS community participation includes a variety of activities that allow people to connect with others, develop skills, and contribute to society. This involves attending social events, joining clubs or groups, volunteering, and participating in educational or recreational programs. The NDIS funds these activities, recognising their value in promoting inclusion participation under two primary categories:
Core Support
This includes aid with social and community participation, as well as the provision of support personnel to assist individuals in engaging in community activities.
Capacity Building Supports
The increased social and community participation NDIS category focuses on improving the skills and confidence needed to participate in community life on their own.
These services are intended to be adaptable, catering to the specific requirements and goals of each participant.
Increased Social and Community Participation NDIS
The goal of the Capacity Building Supports category “Increased Social and Community Participation” is to enable people to take an active role in their communities. This includes financing for initiatives that foster independence, self-assurance, and social skills.
Increased Social and Community Participation NDIS Examples
- Workshops for Skill Development: Courses emphasising everyday living, social interaction, and communication.
- Community Engagement: It includes volunteering, joining clubs or groups, and taking part in local activities.
- Educational Courses: Taking courses that complement one’s hobbies or professional objectives.
- Recreational Activities: Sports, the arts, and other pastimes that foster well-being and social connection are examples of recreational activities.
These activities, which are customised to each person’s tastes, are meant to promote personal development and community involvement.

Iinnovative community participation is a flexible NDIS support category that promotes unique and unconventional methods of community engagement. This covers one-of-a-kind programs and activities that may not fit into typical categories yet are critical for individual growth and inclusion.

Assistance with Social and Community Participation NDIS Code
The NDIS uses unique codes to categorise and administer funding for various supports. To help with social and community participation, the relevant code is: 04_104_0125_6_1.
This code refers to assistance provided to persons in connecting with their community, such as attending events, joining groups, or participating in leisure activities. Understanding these codes is critical for properly planning and using NDIS funds to achieve personal goals.
Providing Community Activities that Enrich Everyday Life
Going beyond basic involvement, our approach is to make every experience meaningful in the community. Whether it’s joining a craft class or participating in local sports, our team ensures that each NDIS participant is supported by skilled providers. Social and community activities help participants to find new interests, engage in daily life, and make new friends.
Through personalised community participation assistance, we help participants in accessing fun and rewarding opportunities. Our main goal is to build lasting relationships and provide peer support across all programs.
