About this Reference Group

A group of people with speech bubbles above them.

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

The Reference Group shares their ideas with the IAC about how to support First Nations:

A diverse group of people in the community.

2 participants. Above them is the Aboriginal flag and the Torres Strait Islander flag.

3 participants with different disabilities. Above them is the Aboriginal flag and Torres Strait Islander flag.

Participants are people with disability who take part in the NDIS.

The Reference Group’s ideas are about support for First Nations participants to:

3 participants and above them is a speech bubble that shows a tick and cross.

A diverse group of people in the community.

A shield with a tick to show safety.

2 First Nations people with a safety icon. 1 of them is shaking hands with someone else.

When something is culturally safe, people feel:

A pencil writing on a document with a light bulb on it.

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

We just call them the NDIA Board.
