Our National Day of Action is this Thursday!
Here's 5 ways you can take part:

1. Print out a poster and share why you are Ready to #DefendOurNDIS - put the poster up and share photos of it all over social media.

2. Attend an event near you or online or host one - could be as easy as grabbing some muffins and hosting a morning tea at work on Thursday.

Why have NDIS appeals to the AAT shot up by more than 400%? Why are disability advocacy organisations drowning in requests for help?

Why are people with disability, families & workers coming together all over the country today to hold a National Day of Action to #DefendOurNDIS? (Image description: Screens...
Because the NDIS is changing. It is letting down the people it exists to support.

In really big ways.

One of the main reasons behind the awful recent changes has just been leaked to the media.

"NDIA staff are under pressure to employ a 'no initial contact call' process when assessing thousands of participants’ claims for a review of their NDIS plan."

Kevin Stone from @VALID_Inc is about to deliver a blistering statement on the #NDIS - tune in or follow the thread here 👇 #HandsOffOurNDIS
I’m Kevin Stone. I’m the CEO of @VALID_Inc and the Chair of @inclusionoz. Late last year, VALID stopped working with the NDIA on anything to do with their Independent Assessments. #NDIS #HandsOffOurNDIS
We had come to the conclusion that they do not have the best interests of people with disabilities or their families at heart. Nothing they have said or published since persuades me that we got it wrong. #NDIS #HandsOffOurNDIS

First up this morning is @Adv4Inclusion, @MHCCACT, @sdmrights. #NDIS #NDISJSC Four women seated in a hearing room
We are united in our concerns about the introduction of proposed mandatory independent assessments. Reduce dignity, choice and control and wellbeing. We don't believe they will address the issues. Over-simplistic assessment tools untested - @Adv4Inclusion #NDIS #NDISJSC
