Gippy Support Coordination provides an independent NDIS Support Coordination service for NDIS participants in West Gippsland and the Latrobe Valley. My name is Tanya Stephens and I am an experienced Support Coordinator previously employed by The Cassidy Crew and prior I was a Local Area Coordinator (LAC) since the rollout of the NDIS in Gippsland. I have extensive knowledge of the NDIS, funding, r
eview, applications and processes for assistive technology (equipment), SIL/SDA housing and also mainstream and community supports. I have many years experience in the disability sector along with the following:
-Diploma in Community Services
-NDIS Worker Screening Clearance
-Working With Children Check (WWC)
I can assist you with the following:
- Understanding your NDIS Plan.
- Finding the right service providers for you.
- Utilising your funding to get the most out of your NDIS plan.
- Requesting and having plan reviews.
- Gathering the best evidence to support your funding needs.
- Linking you with mainstream and community supports, including: centrelink, housing, health services, community groups and clubs, employment. Gippy Support Coordination is in the process of becoming a registered NDIS provider. Currently I can assist NDIS participants who have Plan-managed or Self-managed Support Coordination funding in their plan. Changing your support coordination to plan or self managed is a simple request to the NDIA.
