Service Agreement

At Reconnect

Service Agreement is a document. It is for you and your service provider.

The service provider is the person or organisation that provides you with supports.

The document says that you both agree about the services you are going to receive.

When you have agreed, you both sign the document.

The Service Agreement is a good way to make sure you receive the services that are right for you.

And having a Service Agreement is a helpful way to make sure you have everything in writing if any problems occur

You can ask another trusted person to enter into the Agreement for you.

This might be a family member, carer, friend or other person.

The trusted person can speak for you.

Also, it's a good idea to take a copy of your NDIS Plan to any meetings you have about your Service Agreement.
