What is Assistance with Social and Economic Participation?

In plain English

A Core Supports category that funds a worker to help you take part in social, community and some work related activities.

This core support pays for the worker who goes with you to activities in the community, from a class or a social group to shopping or an appointment. Because it sits in Core, it is usually flexible, so you can adjust how you use it. It is about being able to get out and take part, and it pairs well with the capacity building that develops the skills to do more of it independently over time.
