Are you confused or unaware of financial support that may be available to you as a carer or person with a disability? Here's a list with links to some forms and information you may find helpful.
A great place to start is Kalparrin which is an organisation to support children. . They have a free ebook called Next Steps that walks you through what to do following a diagnosis. They also offer appointments to help you through the process and where to go next which are free. It includes info about Centrelink and NDIS as well.
You can download the ebook from their website.
