Use your Core Supports for Support Coordination services but it is important to note though that you have to maximize your Support Coordination funding first before you are allowed to use your Core Supports funding to pay for the service
Use your Core Supports to purchase devices like IPAD or tablets, of course, this should be within the premise of what is deemed to be reasonable and necessary. The purpose of purchasing the device should co-relate to accessing services you need in relation to your disability. Say, for example, you have transferred to a remote area wherein it is far from your preferred therapist or you can no longer have face to face therapy sessions for class or therapy due to COVID 19 precautionary measures, then you will be able to purchase IPAD or tablet using your Core Support funding
