Connected Services

We support children who are deaf, hard of hearing, blind or have low vision—wherever you are in Australia.
Service delivery via videoconference

Support when and where you need it

We can come to you in any corner of Australia.

NextSense Connected Services brings an expert team to you via video conferencing or telepractice.

We've been connecting with families this way for many years so that people who live outside our service locations can still work with our education experts.

NextSense school holiday programs

Throughout the year, NextSense offers residential camp programs for families taking part in NextSense Connected Services. The camps blend educational experiences with a range of fun and social activities to help children develop confidence and connect. They're also where parents and caregivers can come together and share experiences.

For most, the camps are the best part of the year!

How much does a Connected Services program cost?

NextSense is a registered NDIS provider which means we can provide services covered under your NDIS plan, at no cost to you.

Who's this service for?

NextSense Connected Services is available to any child in Australia who:

  • can't access a local NextSense centre
  • has significant hearing or vision loss
  • is under 18.
  • hasn't started or hasn't finished their schooling.
