Just Diagnosed - FAQs
How does CPL support parents of children with disabilities?
If your child has an NDIS Plan, these services sit under "Improved Daily Living Skills". If not, CPL can support you through the NDIA's Early Childhood Early Intervention (ECEI) approach which is available to all children aged under seven with a developmental delay or disability.
We can also help to support you at this time through services like social work, support at home, short-term care (respite), and our My Time support group. Find out more information here: cpl.org.au/disability-services/parents-and-carers
How do I know CPL is the right provider for my child?
We have been supporting people with disabilities for over 70 years, and our organisation was founded by parents just like you who simply wanted the best for their kids. You can trust us to provide high quality support at every stage of your child's journey.
