About this service

What is psychosocial disability?

Psychosocial disability arises from a mental health condition that significantly impacts a person’s daily life, relationships and community participation. The NDIS funds supports to help people with psychosocial disability live independently and participate in their community. Careable’s approach is built around recovery — patient, flexible, and guided by the participant’s own goals.
