NDIS and mental health support: am I eligible?
The NDIS scheme is aimed at providing support for people with a disability, including those with a psychosocial disability, to have an ordinary life. However, not all people with mental health issues would be considered to have a disability and therefore are not eligible for the scheme. We have put together the answers you need to find out if you are eligible for the scheme.
