Participants & families

Getting started is the easy part.

No jargon, no pressure, no wrong questions. Here's exactly what happens when you reach out — and everything you might want to know before you do.

Four steps

From hello to your first support.

Say hello

Call, email or book a meeting. Tell us a little about you and what you're looking for.

Meet your team

We'll chat through your goals, plan and preferences — no jargon, no pressure.

Craft your supports

Together we build a support plan and match you with the right people.

Get started

Your supports begin, and we keep checking in to make sure they're working for you.

Funding, explained simply

Whatever your funding, we make it work.

NDIS agency, plan or self-managed; a Home Care Package or Support at Home for older Australians; or private, fee-for-service. Not sure what you have or what you're entitled to? Bring your paperwork to a chat and we'll walk through it together.

Good questions

Asked all the time.

Not necessarily. We support NDIS participants (agency, plan and self-managed), Home Care Package and Support at Home clients, and private clients. If you're unsure, we'll help you work it out.

Echuca–Moama, Shepparton and Deniliquin. If you are outside these areas, please get in touch to discuss options.

Yes — that's the whole idea. We work hard on the right staff match during intake, and the final decision rests with you. If a match isn't right, tell us and we'll find a better fit — no offence taken.

After a first chat about your needs and plan, we work to get you started as soon as we can.

Yes — cooking, fitness, woodworking, weekly bus trips, social groups, an after-school program and school-holiday fun. All abilities welcome; see the Programs page.

Our Participant Portal lets you see your schedule, review your budget in real time and approve invoices in one click.

Your rights

Informed choices, every step.

You're never obliged to accept a support — or a staff match — that doesn't meet your expectations. Tell us and we'll work on it with you, no offence taken. And if you ever want to raise a concern outside U-Choose, the NDIS Quality and Safeguards Commission is there for exactly that.
