In Australia, the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) relies on a network of support providers. These can be either individual professionals or organisations that supply various services and products to NDIS participants. Many of these providers choose to register with the NDIS Quality and Safeguards Commission, a regulatory body that sets quality benchmarks and oversees compliance with the NDIS Code of Conduct.

• Go to the Provider Finder page in the NDIS website.
