You have made considerable progress in terms of supporting Aziza to design and record her community participation support plan. You have done this using a person-centred and risk management approach to ensure success for Aziza as far as can possibly be predicted in the early stage.

• Remain in contact with her school friends now that she has left high school
• Go shopping for clothes and other items that celebrate her emerging womanhood
• Include her Mum in activities so that they can start to better understand, develop and appreciate their relationship now that she is a young woman living in Australia
• Maintain and develop her connections to her Muslim culture
• Try work experience as a trainee administration assistant in a local community service where she can learn and use business skills and develop confident customer relations skills
• Take an active role in the financial management of her NDIS funding package as her plan roles out so as to make sure that she is getting value and the benefit that she requires from her support services
