Today, our CEO Rohan Braddy is at the National Press Club listening to Minister for Disability and the NDIS, Mark Butler, speak about the future direction of the NDIS.

For us, moments like this matter because what’s discussed in these rooms eventually shapes everyday life for the people we support. Decisions made at a national level flow through to the services available, the opportunities created, and the confidence people can have in the system around them.

By staying close to these conversations and hearing directly from the source, we can better understand what’s ahead and plan thoughtfully. We take what we learn and ask one simple, guiding question: what does this mean for the people we support their families, and their futures?

Because at the end of the day, behind every policy announcement are real people, real lives and real outcomes — and that’s where our focus will always be.
