Who are we?
RippleAbility is the brainchild of Monique Power and Claire Falloux, as an evolving legacy to her daughter: Emmilou (pictured on the right), who was born with an extremely rare and sporadic disability (VACTERL Association), and who inspires all that know her with her resilience, warm heart and zest for life!
Inspired by Emmilou’s journey, driven by Monique’s passion and overseen by Claire’s (co-director) incredible business acumen and steadfast ability to ‘get things done!’, RippleAbility was given life.
RippleAbility was established to empower families to access and optimise their plans with the NDIS (National Disability Insurance Scheme). We are a paediatric specific service that helps carers and participants identity both informal and formal support networks as they navigate and pioneer their NDIS experience. We utilise a person-centred approach to ensure that every participant fully understands their needs and we endeavour to identify the best solutions for long term health and wellbeing.
Why choose RippleAbility?
Unlike most other paediatric disability consulting companies, for all of us at RippleAbility our service is personal. We know, and understand, the first-hand the struggles, obstacles, and challenges associated with caring for a child or person with different abilities - and we want you to know that you are not in this alone. We believe it takes a village.
We all start somewhere. Remember, all the greatest waves of change, started as a humble ripple from a tiny drop; given the environment, resources and opportunity to do so. Our children are that one drop - ready to grow into a ripple that will impact all blessed enough to share in its creation.
Our Mission
Our mission is simple: To improve the lives of NDIS participants and their families through knowledgeable, family-centred, and outstanding support provision. We aim to create a village that is dedicated to empowering, educating and enabling our participants and their families to successfully navigate the disability services system, achieve their goals and enjoy purposeful lives.
Our Core Value: Love
For all of us at Ripple Ability, LOVE is our absolute number one value. Above all else, we believe that living a life with love at the forefront is enriching, emboldening and empowering. We love our children. We love our families. We love our lifestyles. We love our work. We love our village of support. We love our lives!
Approaching every situation with love in mind enables us to be empathetic to all living things and conscious of creating a ripple that effects positive change and enhances the futures for our children and their children thereafter.
Our commitment to sustainable business practice.
At RippleAbility, we believe everyone, regardless of their abilities, is entitled to a fair and just world for generations to come. We are committed to minimising the environmental impact of our business operations wherever possible. We aspire to lead the way toward a more sustainable paediatric disability space. To take steps toward this commitment, we are currently:
Only banking with organisations that are committed to offsetting their carbon footprint and not actively investing in coal and coal-seem gas sectors.
Committing to paperless record keeping.
Where can not avoid printing, opting for recycled or eco-friendly options.
