Welcome to Australian Communities
Australian Communities was established to create a disability service sector that we can all be proud of.
Raising The Bar For The Disability Sector
Australian Communities was established to create a disability service sector we can all be proud of.
It’s our goal to see all NDIS providers implement systems and put policies in place which make their business highly sought after by staff and participants.
The contemporary practice model we provide changes how things are done in the disability sector. By sharing simple methods to resolve common problems, it helps organisations to improve standards across everything they do.
Our model is demonstrated in our own work delivering supported independent living services for children and adults with complex needs.
We’ll Help You Take Control
Australian Communities provides advice and training to the disability sector and works with NDIS participants who require support to live independently.
As a Disability Service Provider ourselves, Australian Communities provides round-the-clock supported independent living in the Brisbane area to NDIS participants.
Our professional support staff are fully qualified and have the benefits of working with clear systems so they can provide consistently good quality service.
Our Story
Australian Communities was founded by disability sector professional River Night.
After working in the sector for over two decades, River recognised the lack of consistency within and between service providers as well as the frustration of staff, participants and business operators. To solve this problem, River applied his own experience in disability, mental health, education, youth detention and child safety to create a model which would help others set and maintain better standards.
River and his team now act as consultants to the disability services sector, while also providing direct support services for participants who require supported independent living options in Australia.
Our Vision
Creating a disability services sector we can all be proud of. Australian Communities is on a mission to create happier, seamless and less stressful experiences for all those involved in the disability sector.
In the past, disability sector operators, their clients and their staff have been frustrated by a lack of consistency, transparency and systemised workflow.
Australian Communities has a vision for a future where these businesses provide better service and become a better place to work, meaning they are sought after as a provider of choice.
To achieve this, we provide a contemporary model and a consulting service which helps improve outcomes for NDIS participants, disability services staff and business owners within our industry.
