You can help make the NDIS stronger

Join Participant First to have your say.

The best way to make the NDIS stronger is to listen to people with lived experience of disability and the NDIS.

The Participant First group is one way NDIS participants, families and carers can have their say about how to improve the NDIS experience, systems and processes.

The NDIS is calling for people within this demographic to sign up for the Participant First group and take part in activities such as:

  • * focus groups or interviews
  • * workshops on specific issues, processes or products
  • * surveys and discussion papers
  • * research projects.

Some of these feedback opportunities are paid.

Participant First members receive a newsletter every 2 weeks offering new opportunities to get involved.

As a member, you can choose to register for opportunities you’re interested in.

All feedback is confidential and doesn’t get added to official participant records.
