Bridging the gap: How the Murri Court is working with
Carers Queensland to support people to access the NDIS
It has been almost 18 months since Owen and Marshall last set foot in front of the Magistrate at the Murri Court in Brisbane.
And both credit the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) for helping them get their lives back on track.
Carers Queensland, as part of the Local Area Coordinator Partner in the Community program, is working alongside the National Disability Insurance Agency (NDIA) to support Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people who are participants in the Murri Court process and connect them to the Scheme.
