  families, students or community groups)
• Advocacy and general support
• Referral to other relevant government or community based services (i.e. Novita Children’s Services, Options Coordination, South Australian Housing Trust and other health professionals).
• Education program for schools and community organisations, to raise awareness of the impact on the lives of people with neuromuscular disorders and those around them.
• Support groups for individuals to attend on a regular basis.
