This Recovery Framework is grounded in six core principles:
1. Supporting personal recoveryโ€”helping participants live a life meaningful to them.
2. Valuing lived experienceโ€”ensuring policy reflects real voices among participants.
3. NDIS & mental health integrationโ€”for seamless clinical and disability support.
4. Informed decisionโ€‘makingโ€”empowering participants with clear, helpful resources.
5. Responsive to fluctuating needsโ€”recognizing the episodic nature of many conditions.
6. A traumaโ€‘informed, recoveryโ€‘oriented workforceโ€”so staff and partners are equipped and compassionate.

Developed through wide consultation with participants, families, carers, experts, and governments, this framework represents a new chapter of recovery-centered support within the NDIS.

It means better guidance, more flexibility, genuine inclusion, and services that really fit each personโ€™s journeyโ€”so that everyone with psychosocial disability can pursue independence and community connection with dignity.

๐Ÿ•Š๏ธ In Solidarity with Bondi ๐Ÿ•Š๏ธ

Our hearts are heavy as we mourn the lives lost and the people injured in the Bondi incident.
To the victims, their families, friends, and everyone affected โ€” we stand with you in grief, love, and remembrance.

Today, we pause to reflect, to pray, and to send strength to first responders, healthcare workers, and all those supporting the affected families during this heartbreaking time.

May we continue to look after one another, check in on those who may be struggling, and choose kindness โ€” always.

๐Ÿค Our thoughts are with Bondi.
๐Ÿค Our hearts are with Australia.

Not every support visit needs to launch straight into tasks and to-do lists. For many people, feeling safe and grounded first makes all the difference.

We like to build in โ€œsoft startsโ€ to visits, which might look like:

๐Ÿ’œSitting down for a check-in and a cuppa before doing anything else
๐Ÿ’œAllowing time for sensory or emotional regulation โ€“ headphones, quiet time, stimming, movement
๐Ÿ’œTalking about what feels manageable today, and what needs to wait
๐Ÿ’œRespecting a personโ€™s right to say, โ€œIโ€™m not up for that task todayโ€

These gentle beginnings can reduce anxiety, build trust and actually make the rest of the visit more productive.

At Better Now Disability Service, we aim to work at your pace โ€“ some days that means doing a lot, some days it means focusing on feeling safe and steady. Both are valid.

Respite isnโ€™t a timeout โ€“ itโ€™s part of a therapeutic journey.
