We coordinate and fund support services to about 55,000 disabled people and their whānau each year, through both NASCs and EGL sites.
We fund environmental support services for about 100,000 people each year. About 50,000 of these people receive equipment and modification services.
We also fund Child Development Services for around 26,000 disabled children per year, to help them reach developmental milestones.
Our immediate priorities are to stabilise and strengthen our operations, whilst planning for a sustainable disability support system for the future.
