The Salt Foundation

The SALT Foundation is a registered charity and NDIS provider based in Melbourne, dedicated to delivering disability support services that prioritise genuine human connection over bureaucratic compliance. The organisation offers comprehensive NDIS services including core supports such as assistance with daily living, participant transport, and social and community engagement, alongside capacity building supports encompassing support coordination and psychosocial recovery coaching. The SALT Foundation distinguishes itself through its team approach model, bringing together disability support workers, support coordinators, and psychosocial recovery coaches to work collaboratively with participants toward their personal goals rather than predetermined service outcomes.

The company specialises in supporting individuals living with disabilities across multiple dimensions of wellbeing and community integration. Their core service offerings include six main types of NDIS core supports covering assistance with daily living, social and community engagement, cleaning support, gardening support, participant transport, and supported independent living support. Additionally, the SALT Foundation provides five NDIS capacity building services including group programmes, improved daily living support, improved health and wellbeing initiatives, psychosocial recovery coaching for those rebuilding after mental health challenges, and support coordination to help participants navigate their NDIS plans with confidence. The organisation also operates day programmes designed as structured opportunities for participants to connect, learn, and grow within a supportive community environment.

Operating across Melbourne with physical locations in Heidelberg West and Frankston, the SALT Foundation serves NDIS participants throughout the region whilst maintaining a commitment to broader community impact. As a not-for-profit organisation, the company directs all profits back into community projects and operates the Oldies and Goodies Op Shop in Heidelberg West. Clients choose the SALT Foundation for its genuine listening approach, community connection opportunities through regular events including weekly community dinners, and support that evolves alongside participants' changing needs and goals. The organisation's emphasis on long-term relationships, consistency in support worker allocation, and creation of inclusive communities sets it apart from traditional service providers in the disability support sector.
