Support services for participants and carers

What We Provide

Disability Services

Our person-centred services and activities are developed as we listen to Participants and Carers and plan a varied range of services that respond to their individual needs. Our activities offer a safe and supportive environment for people with disability to have fun and socialise, giving the family members an opportunity for time out from their caring role.

NDIS Support

The NDIS supports people with a permanent and significant disability that affects their ability to take part in everyday activities. We will work with you to identify supports you need to live your life. Supports may help you achieve goals in many aspects of your life, including independence, involvement in your community, education, employment and health and wellbeing.

Resources

RIAP is the process by which carers and care recipients are allocated to service providers, such as Riverlink. Allocations to service providers occur in the last three months of the financial year previous to the time service is provided. The lines open in January and close in March, however you can leave a message at any point during the year.

Riverlink and NDIS

Riverlink is a not-for-profit organisation offering support services to people with disabilities, their Carers and their Families. We are dedicated to working closely with Participants and their Carers, which is why our innovative, flexible support programs are driven by those we work with.

What Others Say About Us

I enjoy working for Riverlink because it is an organisation with wonderful culture that provides people living with a disability a real sense of inclusion and choice. Riverlink are constantly evolving and improving to give carers and participants the best service they can and as such are a great source of knowledge on the NDIS.

Support Worker

Staff are always supportive, committed and respect my son as an individual. They display personal knowledge of my son and are patient and supportive in their interactions with both him and the family.

Participant's Carer

The camp gave me the opportunity to spend some quality, stress free and relaxing time with my husband. It also gave my son the opportunity to spend time with his peers doing activities he enjoys and developing his social skills.

Participant's Carer

Our son always arrives home happy from Riverlink day activities and is willing to tell us what he has done. I feel the camps are an important part of my son’s development and independence. We are grateful we have them.

Participant's Carer

Michelle thoroughly enjoyed her Kurrajong camp while my partner and I were able to relax and enjoy our weekend knowing she was well cared for. Often one of us needs to stay home for Michelle, so for both of us to get away together we are grateful.
