Other organisations that can help
The Victorian Disability Advocacy Network (VicDAN) is a network of legal and non-legal disability advocacy organisations. It was formed when the National Disability Insurance Scheme was launched in the Barwon region of Victoria. VicDAN monitors the scheme and assists independent services in supporting Victorians to access the support they need.
VicDAN’s brochure Getting Advocacy support to help you access the National Disability Insurance Scheme (pdf, 724.85 KB) contains information about the scheme and includes a list of organisations which can help you.
