Who this support is for

Specialised supported employment is for NDIS participants who want to work but need more intensive, ongoing support on the job. It can help people with higher support needs take part in meaningful paid work, build skills and enjoy being part of a team.

What’s included

  • Support to find a suitable supported employment setting
  • One-on-one or small-group support in the workplace
  • Breaking tasks into steps and practising them until they feel easy
  • Personal care and supervision at work where needed
  • Building social and communication skills with colleagues
  • Regular reviews of your goals, with pathways to open employment if you want them

How it works

We start by understanding what kind of work you enjoy and what support you need to do it well. We then work with the employer or program to set up the right environment, and stay involved so small problems don’t become reasons to stop working.

How it’s funded

Supported employment is usually funded from Core Supports – Assistance with Social, Economic and Community Participation, and sometimes from Capacity Building – Finding and Keeping a Job. Check your plan or ask us to look at it with you.

Areas we cover

We support participants across Melbourne’s northern suburbs.

Frequently asked questions

Will I be paid?
Yes. Supported employment is paid work. Pay depends on the employer and the role.

Can I move into a mainstream job later?
Yes. If that’s your goal, we’ll build it into your plan and help you with the next step through our employment support.

Can I get help with personal care at work?
Yes, if it’s part of your plan.
