NDIS
Recovery Coach

UnitingSA offers Recovery Coach services under the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) to people who are recovering from a mental health condition.

What is a Recovery Coach?

A Recovery Coach is similar to a Support Coordinator, but they have specific mental health knowledge.

They may also have lived experience of mental illness and recovery, and can use this experience to help support you on your own journey.

Recovery Coaches will:

  • Spend time with you and the people important to you
  • Get to know and understand your needs
  • Help you understand your plan and communicate with the National Disability Insurance Agency (NDIA)
  • Connect you with support providers
  • Assist you to strengthen your support networks and achieve your goals

Who can we help?

This service is available for people with funding in the Capacity Building section for a Recovery Coach.

If you have funding in your plan for Support Coordination and your primary disability is psychosocial, you can choose to receive Recovery Coach supports rather than Support Coordination.

How much does it cost?

Supports are charged directly from your NDIS Plan.

The hourly rate is in accordance with the NDIS pricing guide.

Testimonials

Here’s what our participants have to say about our NDIS team:

"I am very happy with how the trip to Adelaide went (for a medical appointment) and am extremely thankful that UnitingSA and Cory were able to assist and support me to go, as I would not have gone without Cory there to support me."

"Being on the NDIS has changed my life. I’m now attending group activities each Friday. The atmosphere in the group is electrifying and I like meeting new people there. I really like my support worker and we get along really well."

“I was in such a dark place for years and my mental health issues meant I couldn’t see anything straight. With the help of my support worker, I started to feel comfortable in my own skin and now I am even working again. I will always remember how I recovered with the help I received through UnitingSA.”
