Assistance Animals – Are you eligible?
The NDIA published a new guideline on assistance animals today. The guideline was developed to provide further clarity around:
- the definitions of assistance animals
- what information is required to support the funding of an assistance animal; and
- how to access funding for an assistance animal.
Perhaps the most useful updates for Participants are those made to the “Would we fund it” guides for Assistance animals, Therapy animals, and Pets and companion animals.
Still unsure?
If you are still unsure whether or not you would be eligible for assistance or therapy animal supports, we have a team of expert support coordinators who can assist you with understanding what services are available to you under your NDIS plan. Let’s have a chat!
