Important Note:
SDS Care is NOT the NDIS. We are an NDIS Provider that provides support for participants who are already on the NDIS. If you’re looking for support in applying for the NDIS, we can surely help guide you through the process, but we are not the NDIS.
The Information provided below is for your convenience only
