Who is the National Advocacy Service (NAS)?
From our experience in the brain cancer community, one of the primary gaps for patients and families is the availability of sound advice and quality resources.
For many families and individuals, suddenly dealing with brain cancer's challenges can become overwhelming. They do not know where to get a better understanding of the complexities of the disease and what resources or government services are available to them.
At Peace of Mind, we are passionate about collaborating with other organisations to help assist our clients.
Cure Brain Cancer Foundation and Peace of Mind Foundation are proud collaborative partners of the National Advocacy Service, which directly assists families with accessing support services including the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS), Centrelink and other government programs.
The service launched on November 1 2021 and we are here to help you with:
General information & advice (online, phone or face to face)
Connecting you to local support services/contacts within your region
Applying to the NDIS, Centrelink, Carer Gateway, etc
Sending you a copy of ‘The Survivorship Diary’ - a new brain cancer resource
If you require the services above or are seeking services for your specific needs, we would love to hear how we can help.
The National Advocacy Service is one of the many ways we help support patients, carers and families affected by a brain cancer diagnosis. See below to learn more about Peace of Mind Foundation’s other support and care services.
