Your Simple Guide to Respite Funding
Temporary housing is fully funded through the NDIS framework, meaning you do not have to worry about surprise out-of-pocket bills.
Short-Term Accommodation (STA) is drawn directly from your Core Supports budget line under Assistance with Daily Life. Medium-Term Accommodation (MTA) is funded as a separate line item inside your Core budget to cover the cost of the house itself. Our team works hand-in-hand with your support coordinator to review your funding packages, handle the booking logistics, and secure approvals easily.
