Tender ID: 610464
Tender Details
Tender Description
This open competitive grant opportunity represents part of a phased approach to disability reform, including reform of the former ILC program, through the new Disability Peer Support and Connections (DPSC) Program.
This grant opportunity aims to distribute funding to meet the unique needs of Australians with disability under the age of 65, their families, carers and kin.
Supports funded under the grant opportunity may provide benefit to children aged 0-8 and their families where this forms part of a broader service offer or scope.
Successful organisations will be funded to deliver activities that strengthen support networks, including peer support networks, empower people with disability, and foster meaningful connections across diverse communities.
This grant opportunity will be split into three (3) activity streams:
- Stream 1: Individual and Family Capacity Building,
- Stream 2: Community Capacity Building,
- Stream 3: Information, Advice and Referral.
Applicants may apply for more than one (1) stream (although this is not a requirement) and will need to complete a separate application for each stream being applied for.
To support applicants in understanding the grant opportunity, the department has prepared an industry briefing video, which includes full captioning and Auslan interpretation. Click here to watch.
