This service will establish your best pathway to successfully engage in employment.

Yet only just over half of working-age NDIS participants are employed (compared with 80 per cent of Australians of working age without disability), and many unemployed people who live with disability have trouble finding work.
AAAR Ability Assist can help you achieve greater wellbeing by supporting you to find work and achieve your employment goals, however long it takes.
Through the NDIS, we offer:

Completed by our fully qualified psychologists, vocational assessments are available to NDIS participants who may need a greater level of support to develop occupational goals and a successful pathway to engage in meaningful employment.
The purpose of a vocational assessment is to analyse your transferrable skills, experience and qualifications, and to help identify your employment potential and career opportunities. Our psychologists will also consider any medical restrictions that may be in place, as well as any reasonable adjustments to increase your independence and maximise your capacity at work.
