Families reported challenges navigating the NDIS including administrative challenges and extensive wait times for assistive technology, as well as gratefulness for increased opportunities for support. Occupational therapists and other allied health professionals can assist by: being proactive in service delivery and advocating for the needs of individual families and children; and finding ways to increase the preparedness of the NDIS to better understand the needs of children with cerebral palsy and their families.
