Demystifying the NDIS for SWers: Part 1

Demystifying the NDIS for SWers: Part 1

Calling all workers of resilience! This one's for you, especially if you're a SWer with an invisible illness.

We know that many SWers engage in the work because they are disabled that make it impossible to access traditional employment opportunities. But did you know that you can apply for the Australian National Disability Insurance Scheme if you can demonstrate how your impairments functionally impact how you live?

Bigger Sister Channel’s Managing Director Estelle Lucas recently became a participant for the NDIS and is sharing their story for the community to learn from. In this 3-part series we will reveal how the NDIS can improve your financial capability by supporting those facing disabilities and impairments.

👤 In this video, we are introduced to Estelle Lucas and their journey in navigating an invisible battle. After 15 years in the public health care system, they have found support and accommodations for the very first time thanks to the NDIS.
Their story sets an example of how psychosocial disabilities present and how they can be managed.

Discover how the NDIS can be a game-changer for sex workers with invisible illnesses, offering economic empowerment and the crucial support needed for a quality life. This video focuses on Estelle’s story to encourage you and urge you to reflect on your own narrative - you may deserve more help and support than you’re willing to admit.

Ready to embrace your story? Hit play and let’s learn who is eligible for the NDIS and how to get onto it.

With mental illnesses you can go a long time without any diagnoses. I knew a lady who had schizophrenia for her whole life but only got diagnosed when she was middle aged.
