Connections & Relationships

This is a group program for NDIS participants, building confidence and skills for dating, friendships and lasting relationships.

Building skills for dating, connection and lasting relationships

Our connections and relationships program is a therapist-led group program for NDIS participants. Working within the NDIS, we’ve noticed that many participants feel alone in experiencing a delay in forming meaningful social and romantic relationships.

This program brings people together to learn and share experiences, so you can build the tools to date, form relationships and make connections. Along the way, you’ll build the skills and knowledge needed for healthy, lasting friendships and relationships.
