Lorna Hodgkinson Foundation
About
Unisson Disability is an NDIS service provider operating in NSW that delivers comprehensive disability support services including accommodation, community access programs, supported employment, and support coordination. With over 100 years of history, the foundation supports people with intellectual and other disabilities to live independently and participate meaningfully in their communities through tailored housing options (SIL, SDA, ILO) and skill-building programs.
Tips for Applicants
This is primarily a service delivery organisation rather than a traditional grant-making foundation. Engagement would be most relevant for organisations seeking partnership on disability accommodation, employment support, or community access programs in NSW, or for individuals seeking NDIS-funded disability services.
Giving Philosophy
Unisson Disability operates with a commitment to inclusion, personalised care, and enabling people to live life their way. The foundation prioritises direct service delivery and support coordination to help individuals navigate the NDIS system and access appropriate supports that meet their unique needs.
