About our Camp: At Cahoots, we provide individualised, community-based support services designed to help participants build independence, develop life skills, and increase social and community participation for our children and young people living with a disability. Our group-based supports are delivered in a safe, inclusive, and structured environment by trained staff who tailor activities to each participant’s disability-related support needs and NDIS goals. Our services are not "camps" in the traditional sense, but rather structured support sessions delivered in community settings that provide participants with meaningful opportunities to: Learn and practice daily living skills (e.g., personal care, routines, self-management) Build social confidence and communication in group environments Access the community safely with supervision (e.g., transport training) Participate in recreational activities that foster wellbeing Improve emotional regulation and teamwork through structured group activities. Our service is delivered by trained staff who work with participants in ratios suited to their needs (e.g., 1:1, 1:2), following NDIS quality and safeguarding standards. Important Note: Cahoots works in partnership with families, Support Coordinators, and plan managers to ensure supports are aligned with each participant’s NDIS plan and goals. We encourage participants and families to confirm with their LAC or MyNDIS contact that the supports they intend to claim align with their approved funding categories. Participants using self-managed or plan-managed funding will receive a breakdown of support costs and are encouraged to confirm access to the relevant NDIS line items before attending. ✔ What’s Included Under NDIS-Funded Support: Direct support by trained staff (1:1, 1:2 ratios based on participant needs) Skill-building and personal development aligned with participant goals Capacity Building and Social & Community Participation support aligned with NDIS goals Coordination, planning, risk management, and admin Quality and safeguarding standards Implementation of participant behaviour and communication strategies Supervision and support throughout the session Quality, safeguarding, and insurance ✔ Costs Covered or Not Covered – Depending on Your Plan Depending on the participant’s NDIS plan and the support item being used (e.g., Core Supports or Group-Based Activities under Category 0136), the following costs may be claimable: Accommodation and meals during overnight stays Venue entry fees and recreational activity costs Transport to and from the activity Materials and equipment used during the activity (e.g., art supplies) If the participant is funded under a support item that does not allow these costs (e.g., 0125 or 0136 without accommodation provisions), These items may be covered through Cahoots donor support, or may be charged as out-of-pocket costs where applicable.
