Living Your Life Beyond the Front Door
Being part of the community is about much more than “getting out of the house” – it is about belonging, contributing and feeling confident in everyday spaces.
Assistance in Coordinating or Managing Life Stages, Transitions & Supports (NDIS Code 0106)
NDIS Registration Group 0106 – Assist-Life Stage, Transition – is a Capacity Building support designed to help participants plan for and navigate significant life changes, rather than just coping day‑to‑day.
Supports under Code 0106 can be short‑ or long‑term and focus on building skills, confidence and problem‑solving so you can manage future transitions more independently.
Assistance in Coordinating or Managing Life Stages, Transitions and Supports (NDIS Code 0106) at Raha Community Care is about making big life changes less overwhelming, more organised and genuinely empowering for adults living with disability in Melbourne’s eastern suburbs.
When Life Changes Feel Overwhelming
Major life transitions can be stressful for anyone; for people living with disability, they often involve extra coordination, paperwork, new professionals and unfamiliar environments.
Typical examples include leaving school, starting or changing jobs, moving house, adjusting to independent living, returning home after hospital, relationship changes or re‑designing your supports after a new diagnosis or progression of a condition.
Raha Community Care’s 0106 service exists to make these periods of change more manageable, structured and hopeful – especially for participants with complex health or cultural considerations that are not well supported by standard “one size fits all” approaches.
How Raha Community Care Supports Life Transitions
Our Assist-Life Stage, Transition service brings together practical coordination, coaching and clinical insight so you are not trying to juggle everything alone.
Depending on your situation and NDIS plan, we can assist with:
Understanding and implementing your NDIS plan
Clarifying what each budget means, how 0106 fits alongside your other supports, and what is realistically possible during your transition.
Life transition planning and goal setting
Structured conversations to unpack what is changing, what a successful transition would look like, and the steps required to get there – from short‑term tasks to long‑term goals.
Coordinating and sequencing supports
Linking you with the right services (for example housing, employment, education, therapy, community participation) and ensuring everyone is working to the same plan.
Skill development for independent living
Building practical skills such as daily planning, budgeting, household organisation, communication, self‑advocacy and decision‑making so you feel more in control.
Mentoring, coaching and emotional support
Providing a stable point of contact who understands your story, can help resolve issues early, and supports you to problem‑solve rather than do everything for you.
The focus is always on strengthening your capacity, not replacing your voice or taking over your life.
Examples of Life Stages and Transitions We Can Assist With
Every transition is different, but some common scenarios where 0106 can be helpful include:
- Leaving school and moving into further education, training, community participation or employment
- Moving from the family home into shared, supported or independent living
- Returning home after hospital or rehabilitation and needing new services organised quickly
- Starting, changing or leaving a job, including resumes, applications, interview skills and workplace adjustments
- Managing changes in family or caring arrangements, such as ageing parents or shifts in who provides support
- Restructuring your supports after a new diagnosis, progression of a condition or changes to your NDIS plan
If the change you are facing is not listed here, we can still talk through whether 0106 is the right fit and how it might link with other supports in your plan.
Our Difference: Nurse‑Led, Multilingual and Local
Several providers offer life stage transition supports; Raha Community Care adds additional layers of safety, cultural understanding and local knowledge.
Nurse‑led, clinically informed oversight
Our registered nurses help ensure transition plans take into account your health conditions, medications and any high‑intensity support needs, especially during moves, hospital discharges or employment changes.
Multilingual and culturally responsive team
We are intentional about supporting participants from culturally and linguistically diverse communities in Melbourne’s eastern suburbs, providing staff who speak multiple languages and understand different expectations around family roles, independence and decision‑making.
Eastern suburbs focus
Our local focus means we know the hospitals, community services, housing providers, education settings and support networks operating across the eastern suburbs, which helps transitions happen faster and with fewer surprises.
How 0106 Connects With Your Other NDIS Supports
Assist-Life Stage, Transition does not replace your everyday supports – it helps you organise them in a way that fits your changing life.
With community participation (0125 and 0116)
We may use 0106 to plan how you will move from school‑based or segregated programs into more innovative or mainstream community participation, then use 0125 or 0116 funding for the ongoing activities themselves.
With transport (0108)
During a transition – for example relocating home or starting a job – we can coordinate how Assistance with Travel and Transport Arrangements will get you to new locations safely and reliably.
With daily living and clinical supports
Our nurse‑led team can align personal care, nursing, household and other supports with your new routines, reducing conflicts between appointments and improving your overall quality of life.
This integrated approach means your transition plan is not just a document – it is supported by the real services you use every week.
Who Can Access 0106 Support?
In general, Assist-Life Stage, Transition is suitable if:
- You are an NDIS participant (usually under 65) with a permanent and significant disability
- You have funding in the Capacity Building part of your plan for “Assist‑Life Stage, Transition” or similar 0106 items
- You are facing or preparing for a significant life change where extra planning, coordination and skill‑building would make a meaningful difference
If you are unsure whether your plan includes 0106, Raha Community Care can help you and your support coordinator interpret your plan and, if needed, prepare information for a plan review.
What Working With Us Looks Like
We follow a clear but flexible process so you always know what is happening next.
1. Initial conversation
We talk with you (and your family or key supports if you choose) about the life change you are facing, what is currently working, and what feels most stressful or confusing.
2. Mapping your transition
Together we identify key milestones, timeframes, risks and opportunities – for example deadlines for housing applications, enrollment dates, notice periods at work or school, and any clinical considerations.
3. Designing your transition plan
We break the transition into practical steps, allocate responsibilities (including what you want to do yourself) and agree on how we will communicate and review progress.
4. Coordinating supports and building skills
We help connect you to the right services, coach you through conversations with providers, and offer mentoring or training in skills such as budgeting, daily planning, communication and problem‑solving.
5. Review and handover
As the transition stabilises, we gradually step back so that you, your natural supports and your regular services can carry things forward with confidence.
Frequently Asked Questions
No. Support Coordination is a separate NDIS support that focuses on helping you understand and implement your whole plan, whereas 0106 Assist-Life Stage, Transition specifically targets life changes and the skills and planning needed to manage them.
Many participants use both: Support Coordination for overall plan management, and 0106 for specific periods of change such as moving house or starting work.
Assist-Life Stage, Transition can include short‑term, intensive support around a major change or longer‑term assistance when transitions are complex or ongoing.
The exact duration depends on your goals, circumstances and the funding agreed in your NDIS plan.
The NDIS notes that 0106 supports may be delivered by professionals such as disability support workers, developmental educators, social workers, welfare workers, peer workers and Aboriginal health workers, depending on your needs.
At Raha Community Care, these workers are supported by our registered nurses, who provide clinical oversight and guidance when health issues are part of your transition.
