Referral through to ART

Service Description

Applied Abilities is providing a free service to the community, schools and families, by assisting families in making an online referral through to ART (Assessment and Referral Team). What is ART: ART is providing one-on-one application assistance to eligible Queenslanders. ART is a free individualized support service and can help you fill out your application form, talk to your doctors and specialists, submit your NDIS access application and help you track its progress.

We are doing this, as we have seen a gap within our community, where youths who have a disability and are about to disengage from school, families know about the NDIS, but dont know how to access it. We want to assist and this is an obligation free service.
