Support Coordination in ACT and NSW
Turn your dreams into goals by making the most out of your NDIS plan!
We have 14 Life Without Barriers Support Coordinators in the Australian Capital Territory and New South Wales covering all demographic areas with face-to-face and remote access services.
Alisa Monaghan, Program Manager and Kristie McManus, Senior Support Coordinator, manage the team of highly skilled, caring, experienced Support Coordinators. The team dedicate themselves to achieving the best outcomes for the people they support and their families. We work closely with the person and their networks to ensure their needs and requirements are met, and they have the best opportunities to meet their NDIS and life goals.
We are a large, diverse, support coordination team with extensive experience in disability services. Our team comes from many different backgrounds and speak multiple languages. We provide flexible, remote support that feels as personal and connected as having a team right there with you, ensuring you receive consistent, culturally responsive, and accessible guidance tailored to your needs.
Languages spoken within our Support Coordination team include English, German, Mandarin, Urdu, Hindi, Lebanese, Pushto and Punjabi.
