🩵NDIS Term of the Week💛
💛 R U OK? Day 💛
Today is a reminder that checking in with someone doesn't require the perfect words or all the answers.
A simple "Are you okay?" can open the door to a conversation that someone may have been needing.
Many people worry about asking because they're afraid of what happens next if the answer is "No, I'm not okay."
The truth is, you don't need to fix the problem.
You don't need to be a counsellor.
You don't need to have all the answers.
Sometimes the most important thing you can do is listen, show you care, and help someone connect with support if they need it.
If you're concerned about a friend, family member, colleague or someone in your community, reach out. And if you're worried about them but they're not ready to seek support themselves, organisations like Lifeline and Beyond Blue can provide guidance on how to support someone safely.
If you're the one struggling, please remember that reaching out is a sign of strength, not weakness. You don't have to carry everything on your own.
At Your Path Your Way, we believe connection matters. Today, and every day, let's make time to check in with the people around us and with ourselves.
💛 Are you okay?

🩵R U OK? Day — 10 September 2026 💛
There’s no one “right” way to check in. A text, a walk, sitting together, sharing a meme, using signs or AAC, or simply showing up — however you connect, it counts.
A genuine check-in can change someone’s day, and sometimes, their life. 💙
This R U OK? Day, let’s make space for connection in every way, for everyone.
Ask anyone. Ask any way. 🫶
NDIS Changes Explained: Plan Variations vs Plan Reassessments
One of the most common questions we're hearing is: "Do I need a plan variation or a plan reassessment?"
While they can sound similar, they are different processes and understanding the difference can help you navigate changes to your NDIS plan more effectively.
Remember, every person's situation is different. If you're unsure what applies to you, seek advice from your support team or the NDIA.
Understanding the NDIS – Episode 1: Who Can Request a Plan Reassessment? 🎥
There’s been a recent change to who can request an unscheduled NDIS plan reassessment.
As of late August 2026, the request must come from the participant, their nominee, or their child representative. Support coordinators and recovery coaches can still help you prepare the evidence and navigate the process — we just can’t make the request for you.
In this short video, Justine breaks down what’s changed and where to get help if you’re unsure.
The process has changed, but support is still available. 💬
This is general information only. For advice about your own plan, speak with your support coordinator, recovery coach, LAC or the NDIA.
