About the Supports Budgets the SALT Foundation Offers Services For
At the SALT Foundation, we provide NDIS services under the Core Supports Budget and the Capacity Building Supports Budget.
While we don’t offer supports under the Capital Supports Budget, we do have information about these kinds of supports on our blog and how to go about accessing those supports in your NDIS plan.
On this page, we’ll look at the NDIS services the SALT Foundation offers under the Core Supports Budget.
What is the Core Supports Budget?
This budget offers help with everyday living. If you have high day-to-day support needs, then you may need help for Supported Independent Living.
It covers four support categories:
| SUPPORT CATEGORY | TYPES OF SUPPORT ITEMS FUNDED |
| Assistance with Daily Life | Help with everyday needs, ranging from help to clean your house to grocery shopping, from help with gardening to washing your laundry. |
| Consumables | If you need things like continence products or low-cost assistive technology, this is the support category. |
| Assistance with Social & Community Participation | Get out and about with a support worker who can take you to cafes or the library or to community events such as those we run at the SALT Foundation Community House in Heidelberg West or Asha House in Frankston. |
| Transport | This category is for people who need to travel to work or anywhere to achieve the goals you’ve set out in your NDIS plan. |
At the SALT Foundation, we provide support workers under these three support categories:
