This chapter looks at services and focuses on the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS). Services don’t always recognise what young people with cognitive disability can do. They can neglect young people with cognitive disability. This can lead to violence and abuse of the young person.

Professionals, families, and young people needed to fight to make sure supports were helpful. The NDIS must get better for all people with disability.
