Given the modest budget (~$25,000 annually), requests should be appropriately scaled and demonstrate direct benefit to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people in the ACT region.

NDIS LayerThis organisation shows disability-related delivery signals. The strategic question is whether it sits inside a resilient market, a thin market, or a captured market where large providers take most of the money and local alternatives are scarce.
