TRANSPORT
SUPPORT
Transport enables participants to access disability supports outside their home, and to pay for transport that helps them achieve the goals in their plan.

A support that enables a participant to build their independence and skills. Participant budgets are allocated at a support category level (see next section) and must be used to achieve the goals set out in the participant’s plan.
CORE
SUPPORT
Supports that enable participants to complete activities of daily living. Participant budgets often have a lot of flexibility to choose specific supports with their core support budgets, but cannot reallocate this funding for other support purposes (i.e. capital or capacity building supports).
ASSISTANCE WITH DAILY LIVING
This support relates to assisting with and/or supervising personal tasks of daily life to enable a participant to live as autonomously as possible. These supports are provided individually to participants and can be provided in a range of environments, including the participant’s own home.
