Youngcare’s Home Support Grant

Support to move back home, or to make a new one

The Youngcare Home Support Grants are available for individuals aged between 16 and 65 who have extreme functional impairment due to physical disability and who need essential funding to move back home (or to a new home) from inappropriate housing such as Aged Care, long stay hospital, rehabilitation, or out of their current home due to ageing carers or life stage.

The Youngcare Home Support Grant provides up to $10,000 ($20,000 in extreme situations) for essential equipment, home modifications and services, and basic household items and utilities.

Youngcare’s Home Support Grant can provide funding where there are critical gaps in an NDIS participant’s plan, but there is still clear evidence of need. The grant also seeks to bridge the gap in essential services and support for families in need, during the transitional period while they gain access to the NDIS.
