NDIS Community Participation in Perth

Premier Care Connect, PCC, helps you get involved in your community with confidence. We plan activities around your interests and support you to meet people, try new things, and build real connections across Perth. Social and community participation is about going where others go, doing what others do, and choosing activities you enjoy.

  • Joining local clubs or classes like art, music, or sport.
  • Volunteering or work experience that builds confidence and skills.
  • Library visits, markets, community events, or faith and cultural groups.
  • Mentoring, peer groups, and communication practice in real settings.
  • Travel training and planning so public transport feels easier.
  • Small groups or one to one outings with a familiar support worker.

How NDIS funding usually works for participation

Your NDIS plan may include Core funding for Assistance with Social, Economic, and Community Participation. Some people also use Capacity Building funding to learn new skills for community life. Talk to us and we will help you use the right budget for your goals.
