Distinctive Options is registered with the NDIS Quality and Safeguards Commission to deliver a range of disability support services.
As a registered provider, Distinctive Options is externally audited against the Commission’s quality and safeguard disability standards. This independent audit body is currently Community Audits Australia.
For transparency in governance and reporting, Distinctive Options won a Gold Australasian Reporting Award (ARA) in 2021.
As ARA advised, “…to receive Gold a report must demonstrate overall excellence in annual reporting. It should provide high quality coverage of most aspects of the ARA criteria and full disclosure of key aspects of the organisation’s core business. A Gold Award report is a model report for similar organisations to follow…” This is an exceptional achievement.
To the best of our knowledge, no other disability organisation in Australia has ever achieved better than silver.
Distinctive Options were awarded another Gold Award at the Australasian Reporting Awards for transparency in governance and reporting for the 2022 financial year.
