Manal Kidd

 Support Coordinator

With nearly 8 years of experience in the mental health and disability sector including but not limited to key roles within the NDIA during the rollout of the NDIS – I bring insight and hands on knowledge to my work as a Specialist Support Coordinator.

I’ve lead teams across the NDIS and Specialist Support Coordination, Level 2 Support Coordination and Psychosocial Recovery Coaching, by consistently applying a strength based, wraparound approach that puts participants at the center of their journey. Holding a Diploma of Community in Services, I thrive on building genuine relationships, navigating complex systems, and breaking down barriers so individuals can live with greater independence, dignity and choice.

I chose to join Future Focus because of its commitment to personalized, future-oriented supports and its values-driven culture. I wanted to be part of a team that not only understands complexity, but embraces it, ensuring no one is left behind.

My strengths lie in advocating, creative problem-solving and staying calm under pressure. I’m passionate about making the NDIS work better for people, not the other way around. If you’re looking for someone who will champion your goals and walk beside you through every challenge and achievement – I’m here for that!
