- NDIS Capacity Building Supports
Building skills, confidence, and independence for everyday life.
Capacity Building Supports are one of the main support budgets in an NDIS plan. These supports are designed to help participants build skills, increase independence, and work towards their personal goals. The NDIS explains that Capacity Building Supports help participants build their skills to do things for themselves and work towards their goals. NDIS
At Next Step Life Care, we support participants with therapy-based services that can help improve daily living skills, mobility, confidence, independence, and overall wellbeing.
Our Capacity Building support services may include Physiotherapy Services and Occupational Therapy Services, depending on the participant’s NDIS plan and support needs.
- Building Independence
Support focused on long-term progress.
Capacity Building Supports are generally focused on helping participants develop skills and improve their ability to manage everyday life with greater confidence.
Depending on the participant’s plan and goals, these supports may help with:
Daily Living Skills
Support to improve everyday routines, personal tasks, home activities, and practical independence.
Mobility and Movement
Therapy support to improve movement, balance, strength, coordination, and confidence in daily activities.
Functional Ability
Support to understand a participant’s current abilities and identify practical strategies, equipment, or adjustments that may make everyday life easier.
Confidence and Participation
Support that helps participants feel more capable, more independent, and more confident at home and in the community.

Next Step Life Care provides therapy-based services that may support participants under their Capacity Building Supports budget, depending on their NDIS plan.

Physiotherapy can help participants move more safely, manage physical challenges, build confidence, and work towards greater independence in daily life.

Occupational therapy can help participants better manage everyday activities, identify practical strategies, and feel more confident in their home and community environment.
- Using Your Plan
Your funding should match your goals and support needs.
Every NDIS plan is individual. The funding and services available to each participant depend on their disability-related support needs, goals, and the support categories included in their plan. The NDIS states that participants may not have funding against every support budget because each plan is based on individual needs. NDIS
Capacity Building Supports are generally more specific than Core Supports. The NDIS explains that Capacity Building Supports are stated, which means participants must use the funding for the NDIS supports described against each support category. NDIS
Important Note:
Next Step Life Care can help you understand which of our services may suit your plan, but NDIS funding decisions, eligibility, and plan inclusions are managed by the NDIA.
