Circles of Support

The aim of a Circle of Support is to build freely given relationships which strengthen opportunities for an inclusive life.

The facilitator will get to know the person and family network and identify those who may be invited in to the Circle of Support. They will approach those identified and invite them to be involved.

The Circle of Support meets regularly and works together with the person to explore and express their vision for their life.

Circle Friends can also support families and their loved one with future planning and safeguarding.

Circles of Support facilitation can be available through your NDIS funding.
