  • Over 21 years of age

Understand your rights as an NDIS participant

About The Rights Path Project

This project is designed to deliver robust choice and control focused outcomes for culturally and linguistically diverse (CALD) people with disability through an approach that draws on their own experiences. SSI has worked closely with NDIS participants and providers across NSW, Queensland and Victoria to consult, co-design, test and disseminate relevant and accessible in-language resources.

The purpose of this project is to:

Develop resources in English, Khmer, Punjabi, Urdu and Vietnamese.

Strengthen NDIS participants’ understanding of their rights and the quality they should expect of NDIS service providers.

Improve participant knowledge of how to make a complaint when they are not satisfied with services they receive.

How did we create these resources?

We’ve adopted a human-centred co-design process, where SSI facilitators and participants worked closely together to explore feedback mechanisms within the NDIS service and support system. Workshops were conducted in English, with interpreters provided for participants with limited English language proficiency, and focused on the lived experiences of participants.

The consultation process

SSI engaged 18 Lived Experience Consultants both through online and face-to-face consultation workshops across NSW, QLD, and VIC to meet and consult with people with lived experience of disability. These consultations aimed to review the experiences of NDIS participants, their family members, and carers from the Khmer, Punjabi, Urdu, and Vietnamese-speaking communities. The focus areas included:

  • Accessing the NDIS
  • Understanding your rights
  • Providing feedback to NDIS providers

SSI also collaborated with NDIS providers to gain insights into their experiences working with and managing feedback from CALD participants. This collaborative effort aims to ensure a comprehensive understanding of the needs of CALD participants, facilitating better service delivery and support.

The co-design process

SSI engaged 17 lived experience consultants in both online and face-to-face co-design workshops. These sessions focused on collaboratively designing culturally appropriate content by receiving input and guidance from people with lived experience.

This project was funded by the Australian Government through the Support for NDIS Providers Grants Program administered by the NDIS Quality and Safeguards Commission.

About the SETS program

Refugees, asylum seekers and migrants who enter Australia without strong family and community support face major hurdles in adapting to their new lives. The Settlement Engagement and Transition Support (SETS) Queensland program aims to provide such newcomers with the skills they need to engage in society, to achieve emotional wellbeing and to gain economic independence.

Delivered by SSI and operating in the Logan, Brisbane, Moreton Bay South, Redlands, Lockyer Valley, Scenic Rim, and Ipswich regions of Southern Queensland.

How we help

We work with humanitarian entrants and family stream migrants with low English proficiency.
Staff provide settlement services complementing the Humanitarian Settlement Program (HSP), including case work and help with employment and training.
We also work with community groups, empowering them to help newcomers in the long term.

The program provides:

Client support & referral services

We provide information, advice, referrals, and advocacy via one-on-one appointments to support families and individuals who have been in Australia for less than five years on humanitarian or family stream visas. Our services help clients understand, access, and navigate Australian systems, with outreach support available as needed.

Community education

We provide group information sessions, workshops, and outreach sessions on a range of topics, including employment, housing, driver literacy, citizenship test preparation, and healthy relationships to newly arrived refugees and migrants.

Community capacity building

We equip and empower individuals and groups from new and emerging communities to work towards collectively increasing the social and economic participation and personal well-being of community members to ensure that positive settlement outcomes are sustained in the long term.

Youth-centred support

We offer a range of youth activities, a safe space to meet and study and outreach initiatives for young people aged 15 to 24. Our youth-centred settlement workers provide dedicated support. We also facilitate Multicultural Youth Queensland (MyQ), a youth advocacy group.
