News & stories
Stories from our community and practical guides to help you get more from your supports.
Sharing what we learn, together
At Rehoboth, some of the most valuable knowledge we have comes from everyday life, from participants, families and carers across VIC, NSW and QLD, and from our own support workers out in the community. This page is where we share it.
You'll find plain-English guides to navigating the NDIS, ideas for living well at home and in your community, and stories that show what person-centred support looks like in practice. We write for real people, not for jargon lovers, so everything here is designed to be practical, honest and easy to act on.
If you're after detailed how-to information right now, our guides on how the NDIS works and how to apply are a good place to start.
Topics we write about
Getting ready for your first NDIS planning meeting
Your first planning meeting shapes the supports you receive, so a little preparation goes a long way. We cover what to bring, the questions you might be asked, and how to talk about your goals so your plan reflects what matters to you.
How to feel comfortable with a new support provider
Inviting someone new into your home and your routine is a big step. We look at what a good first meeting should feel like, the questions worth asking, and how to speak up early if something isn't quite right.
Practical ways to prevent carer burnout
Caring for someone you love is rewarding, but it can quietly wear you down. We share realistic strategies for protecting your own wellbeing, from building small breaks into the week to knowing when to ask for respite and extra help.
Choosing the right home support
From a few hours of help each week to around-the-clock care, home support comes in many shapes. We unpack the options so you can match the level of support to your needs, your routine and your budget.
More coming soon
We're building our story library article by article, and we'd rather publish things that genuinely help than fill the page for the sake of it. New guides and community stories will appear here as they're ready.
In the meantime, our resource hub brings together forms, guides and useful links in one place, it's the quickest way to find practical information while this page grows.
