• Understand the difference between a hobby and a business, and the value of each
• Evaluate the overall potential of your idea

This connection desk provides community members with an opportunity to learn about NDIS eligibility and access, discover who their Local Area Coordinator (LAC) is, and get answers to general enquiries about disability services and supports available in the community.
