At Ohana, we provide personalised disability support for children, young people and adults across both metropolitan and rural communities.

While we support people with a diverse range of needs, we have a particular passion for neurodivergent support and supporting people living in rural and regional Australia — where finding the right support, and having genuine choice over who provides it, can be especially difficult.

Our approach is relationship-led, strengths-based and focused on the individual. We take the time to understand who you are, what matters to you and what you want your support to help you achieve.

Our disability supports include:

Assistance with Daily Living
Practical, individualised support with everyday tasks at home and in the community, while encouraging independence and building capacity wherever possible.

Community Access & Participation
Support to get out, connect and participate in the things that matter to you , whether that's appointments, sport, social activities, shopping, exploring your community or working towards something new.

Personal Care
Respectful and person-centred assistance with personal care and daily routines, provided in a way that prioritises dignity, choice and independence.

Psychosocial Recovery Coaching
Recovery-oriented support for people living with psychosocial disability, focused on building capacity, navigating supports, strengthening independence and working towards personally meaningful goals.

Early Childhood & Youth Support
Engaging, developmentally appropriate support for children and young people, including capacity building, social and emotional development, community participation, routines and everyday life skills.

And for our rural communities...

Distance shouldn't mean fewer choices.

Ohana is committed to growing access to quality disability support throughout rural and regional Australia. We work creatively with individuals, families and their wider support teams to build consistent support arrangements, including in communities where traditional service models don't always reach.

Different people need different support. That's exactly the point.

What do we charge?

Ohana's disability support services are priced in line with the applicable NDIS Pricing Arrangements and Price Limits for the current financial year.

The amount charged will depend on the type of support you receive, when and where your support is delivered, and any applicable NDIS pricing provisions.

We believe pricing should be clear from the beginning. Your applicable rates will be outlined in your Service Agreement before supports commence, so you know exactly what to expect.

Have questions about your funding or what your supports may cost? Get in touch with our team — we're happy to talk it through with you.

What qualifications do team members have?

Every member of the Ohana team meets a core set of safety and training requirements before providing support. At a minimum, all Ohana staff hold:

• A current Working with Vulnerable People / Working with Children registration, as applicable

• Current First Aid

• Current CPR

• A current National Police Check

• Safe Sleep training

But for us, compliance is only the starting point.

All staff undertake extensive internal training through the Ohana Academy, designed around the way we provide support — with a strong focus on safety, neuroaffirming and trauma-informed practice, professional boundaries, communication, safeguarding and providing genuinely person-centred care.

Our team also brings a diverse range of experience to Ohana. Many of our staff have backgrounds in, are currently studying, or work alongside their Ohana role in fields such as nursing, teaching and education, allied health, disability, youth work and community services.

Where a person has more complex or individual support needs, we also work to ensure their team receives participant-specific training and guidance before providing support.

Qualified is important. The right person is just as important.
