Community Participation Support

Supporting You to Build Confidence, Connection and Independence Meaningful community participation is about more than leaving the house. It is about feeling connected, building confidence and enjoying the freedom to participate in the activities that matter to you. At Oasis Care & Support, we provide personalised Community Participation supports that help NDIS participants engage with their local community, develop meaningful relationships and work towards greater independence.
Whether your goal is to meet new people, develop life skills, pursue a hobby or simply become more confident in everyday situations, our support workers are here to provide assistance based on your individual needs and goals.

What Is Community Participation Support?

Community Participation is an NDIS support designed to help participants become more involved in their local community and participate in activities that promote social inclusion, independence and wellbeing.
For every participant, community participation looks different. For some, it may involve joining a local sporting club or attending community events. For others, it could mean learning to travel independently, visiting the local library, shopping with confidence or participating in recreational activities. At Oasis Care & Support, Community Participation Support is shaped around each participant’s interests, preferences, strengths and individual goals. Every activity is tailored to your interests, strengths and NDIS goals, ensuring your supports are meaningful, enjoyable and focused on achieving positive outcomes.
