A Reference Group is a group of people who give us advice about a certain topic.

This Reference Group is about:

• children

• young people

• their families.

The Reference Group shares their ideas with the IAC about how to support children and young people with disability.

This includes support to:

• do things for themselves

• take part in the community.

The IAC uses these ideas from the Reference Group when they write their advice for the National Disability Insurance Agency (NDIA) Board.

We just call them the NDIA Board.

The NDIA Board is a group of people who make decisions about all parts of the NDIA.
