Real stories
They sent someone who gets my son.
Honestly, I was exhausted trying to find the right supports through the NDIS. But Unify changed everything. Our OT is not just ticking boxes. She's part of our team.
Feels like I've got a whole team behind me now.
I used to have to chase every single therapist, and no one spoke to each other. But with Unify it’s all just... connected. My OT, speechy and behaviour support worker all work together and actually talk to me like a person.
