📢 We’ve made it easy to show your support.

The NDIA’s 2025–26 pricing decision is a devastating blow to occupational therapists. Rates have been frozen for the seventh year in a row, and travel funding has been cut by 50%. This will force many OTs to reduce services, leave regional areas — or leave the NDIS entirely.

That’s why we’ve launched a petition calling on the Australian Government and the NDIA to:
✅ Reverse these unsustainable pricing decisions
✅ Pay OTs fairly
✅ Protect access to vital therapy services

We’ve created a social media tile for you to use — to show you’ve signed the petition and to encourage others to do the same.
🔹 Use it to spread the word
🔹 Encourage your network to take action
🔹 Help amplify our message: Stop cuts to Occupational Therapy Services under the NDIS

Every signature builds public pressure. Every voice counts.
