The National Disability Insurance Scheme (known commonly as the
NDIS) was introduced as a radical new way of funding disability
services in Australia. It is a rare moment in politics and policy
making that an idea as revolutionary, ambitious and expensive as
the NDIS makes it into its implementation phase. Not surprising,
then, that the NDIS has been described by many as the biggest
social shift in Australia since Medicare. This book will be a key
text for scholars and public policy professionals wishing to
understand the NDIS, how it was designed, and lessons learned
through its introduction and roll-out. The book addresses how the
NDIS has intersected with particular cohorts and sectors, and some
of the challenges that have arisen. It highlights the experiences
of people with disability through a collection of personal stories
from participants and families in the NDIS. The key insights from
this large scale public policy experiment are relevant for anyone
interested in social change in Australia, or internationally.
