OUR SECTOR LEADERSHiP
Reimagine Australia has been at the forefront of early childhood intervention, leading life-changing, evidence-based outcomes for children with disability and/or developmental delay and their families for over three decades. We are proud to have led and/or collaborated on key advocacy for several initiatives that have shaped the experience and benefit to families under the NDIS early childhood approach, including:
- The expansion of the NDIS Act to encompass children with developmental delay, not only children with disability. This one piece of advocacy has been transformative for hundreds of thousands of families, since the rollout of the NDIS
- The ability for children to access the NDIS without the need for diagnosis, enabling swifter access to services and supports during the critical early years.
- The NDIS utilising our National Guidelines: Best Practice in Early Childhood Intervention to form the foundation of the design of the early childhood approach.
- In 2020, Reimagine Australia designed and delivered the first National Blueprint for Early Childhood Intervention to 2030, on behalf of the Commonwealth Government, called ‘Reimagine Early Childhood: A National Action Plan to 2030’
