NDIS Participant Statement & Plan The NDIS will gather information through the planning process to develop an NDIS Participant Statement and Plan, which contains information about your child’s:
• Living arrangements
• Important people in their life
• Day to day life
• Goals
• Supports
• Informal supports
• Community supports
• Reasonable and necessary funded supports (which the NDIS will fund)
This workbook will help you to identify and document your child’s current needs and supports, and to think about the supports they will require over the next 12 months that the NDIS plan will be in place.
Complete the sections that are relevant to your child (i.e. the ‘Work’ section will not be relevant if your child is 2 years old).

Carer StatementAs a carer, you have the option to submit a Carer Statement and/or request a separate interview to support the person you care for.
This might include:
• How the caring role affects you
• Whether you are willing and able to keep caring for the person with disability in the same way into the future- this might become more relevant as you get older
• The impact of your caring role on your own personal needs, goals and health (for example- work, study, travel, social cultural or religious activities).
A Carer Statement may add insight, for instance:
• into your wellbeing and the toll that caring is having on you and your family
• a family illness, family separation, or any other change which will impact on the informal support the family provides or the person’s living environment.
It is an opportunity to reflect on the sustainability of your caring role, and how that might change.
We encourage you to write and submit a Carer Statement.

Informal supports providedby familiesWe don’t often think of ourselves as ‘carers’ or ‘informal supports’. The NDIS considers it reasonable to expect parents to provide a level of support to their children.
On the following pages are tables to complete about your role as a carer for your child.
Think about what you do on a daily or weekly basis and how many hours you spend assisting, prompting or supervising your child with tasks and activities that other typical children can do for themselves.
This is an opportunity for you to reflect on the supports you provide to your child, and consider whether you would like to use paid supports for some of these:
� What is typical for a child of the same age?
� Should your child start to become more independent in this task?
� Do you, as a parent, wish to continue the level of support you are providing?
� Do you wish to consider some of your own goals, such as going back to work?

Informal supports provided by families We don’t often think of ourselves as ‘carers’ or ‘informal supports’. The NDIS considers it reasonable to expect parents to provide a level of support to their children.
On the following pages are tables to complete about your role as a carer for your child.
Think about what you do on a daily or weekly basis and how many hours you spend assisting, prompting or supervising your child with tasks and activities that other typical children can do for themselves.
This is an opportunity for you to reflect on the supports you provide to your child, and consider whether you would like to use paid supports for some of these:
� What is typical for a child of the same age?
� Should your child start to become more independent in this task?
� Do you, as a parent, wish to continue the level of support you are providing?
� Do you wish to consider some of your own goals, such as going back to work?

Carer Statement As a carer, you have the option to submit a Carer Statement and/or request a separate interview to support the person you care for.
This might include:
• How the caring role affects you
• Whether you are willing and able to keep caring for the person with disability in the same way into the future- this might become more relevant as you get older
• The impact of your caring role on your own personal needs, goals and health (for example- work, study, travel, social cultural or religious activities).
A Carer Statement may add insight, for instance:
• into your wellbeing and the toll that caring is having on you and your family
• a family illness, family separation, or any other change which will impact on the informal support the family provides or the person’s living environment.
It is an opportunity to reflect on the sustainability of your caring role, and how that might change.
We encourage you to write and submit a Carer Statement.

NDIS Participant Statement & PlanThe NDIS will gather information through the planning process to develop an NDIS Participant Statement and Plan, which contains information about your child’s:
• Living arrangements
• Important people in their life
• Day to day life
• Goals
• Supports
• Informal supports
• Community supports
• Reasonable and necessary funded supports(which the NDIS will fund)
This workbook will help you to identify and document your child’s current needs and supports, and to think about the supports they will require over the next 12 months that the NDIS plan will be in place.
Complete the sections that are relevant to your child (i.e. the ‘Work’ section will not be relevant if your child is 2 years old).
