Testimonials
“I rang last week on behalf of my daughter Simone, with a complaint about the NDIS, as her funding for supports had been exhausted. I was not receiving any contact back at all in regards to our plan review even after numerous calls I had made to get an appointment. My daughter was without her support worker for 3 weeks until I called and spoke to a DACSSA Advocate and asked if DACSSA could help me at all with the situation as it was urgent. The Advocate was wonderful and genuinely cared and listened to all of the issues we had been experiencing. They would see what could be done to help by making some contact and inquiries to the NDIS. Within days we had a phone call from the NDIS stating that they had given my daughter a new plan so she could start receiving her supports from her worker immediately and we also have an appointment in August to come in and discuss additional issues that we need more help and support with added into the plan. I cannot express how grateful we truly are for this help. The pressure and stress has completely gone around this issue and I know that Simone is so much happier again as she can continue receiving the help and support she needs to achieve her goals and for her mental health and well-being. From the very first time I made contact and spoke to the Advocate, they have continued with constant updates and provided so much support in this matter. I don’t know what we would have done without this help as I know that your service has definitely given us this wonderful outcome. Thanks again for all your help I truly appreciate it”.
