More information
This is a one-off grant round delivered by the NDIA, providing up to $40 million over two years with a possible extension of $20 million for one year.
Community-based, disability-led organisations that run existing peer support and self-advocacy programs were eligible to apply.
The NDIA recognises the crucial role these organisations play in the disability ecosystem, helping people with disability to connect with others who have shared similar experiences and build their self-advocacy skills.
