2025 National Disability Conference Application Form

2025 DSS Funding Support Application Form

Disability Conference Funding Support is made available from the Commonwealth Department of Social Services’s National Disability Conference Initiative administered under the Disability, Mental Health and Carers Programme. The purpose of the grant is to help offset the financial cost to self-funded individuals with a print disability wishing to attend the annual Round Table conference. All applicants seeking a portion of the funding support made available by this grant must be an Australian resident and complete and lodge this form on or before 28 February 2025.

Management Process
Applicants must complete an application. This is done by completing and submitting the on-line application form. Within ten days of the close of applications applicants will be notified in writing of the success or otherwise of their application, the amount of funding allocated to them, and the process to be followed when making a reimbursement claim. Successful applicants must, within seven days of receiving this advice, advise the Round Table's Administration Officer (in writing) that they wish to accept the funding offer. Failure to notify their intention within this timeframe will mean that the offer lapses and the funding support can then be reallocated by Round Table's Executive Committee.
