Big life changes can feel overwhelming — moving home, starting a new routine, changing schools, looking for work, or learning to live more independently. At Vision Community Support, our Assist – Life Stage, Transition supports help you plan ahead, build confidence, and take practical steps toward your goals with the right guidance and encouragement.

This support may suit you if you’re:

  • Preparing to move house (or move into supported/shared living)

  • Transitioning from school to work, training, or community programs

  • Adjusting to a new disability, health change, or new support needs

  • Building independent living skills (budgeting, cooking, routines)

  • Needing help to manage major life decisions and reduce stress

  • Wanting to improve confidence in day-to-day life and social participation

How we help

We can support you with:

  • Goal setting and step-by-step transition planning

  • Support to build routines (morning routine, appointments, shopping)

FAQs

1) Is this the same as Support Coordination?

Yes. We can help you plan, build routines, and adjust to a new living environment.

3) Do you support school leavers?
Yes — we can help with confidence, routines, life skills, and pathways into work or community programs.

4) What if I’m anxious about change?
That’s very common. We support you at your pace with small steps and consistent guidance.

5) Can you help me learn independent living skills?
Yes — cooking basics, budgeting, public transport practice, appointment planning, and more.

6) Do you work with families and carers too?
Yes, with your consent, we can involve family/nominees so everyone is on the same page.

7) How often can I use this support?
It depends on your plan and goals. Some people use weekly sessions; others use it around specific transitions.

8) Can I choose my support worker?
Yes. Choice and fit matter — we’ll match based on your preferences.

9) Is this support only for big transitions?
No — even smaller transitions (new routine, new program, new skill goals) can be supported.

10) How do I know if my plan covers this?
Send us your relevant plan wording (or tell us what’s listed), and we’ll guide you.
