My name is Rifat. I work one-on-one with NDIS participants to help them understand their plans, connect with the right supports, and live the life they want. No waiting, no confusion — just honest, straightforward help.
Director & NDIS Support Coordinator
Inclusive Minds · Caroline Springs, VIC
For participants in complex or high-risk situations — hospital discharge, justice contact, housing breakdown, or many services that aren't working together. You work with Rifat directly, and we respond to referrals within one business day.
All services are delivered personally — tailored to your situation, your goals, and your NDIS plan.
I help you understand your NDIS plan, connect you with the right providers, and make sure your funding is working for you — not sitting unused. I take the confusion out of the process.
For more complex situations — multiple providers, higher support needs, or services that aren't working together the way they should. I help untangle the complexity and build a plan that actually holds together.

I started Inclusive Minds because I believe people with disability deserve support from someone who genuinely knows them — not a different person every time, not a case file, not a number in a system.
Before this, I spent over a decade in Victoria Police, then worked as a Local Area Coordinator and Support Coordinator. I've seen first-hand how overwhelming the NDIS can be, and how much difference it makes when someone simply takes the time to listen and help.
When you contact Inclusive Minds, you get me. I'll take the time to understand your situation, explain things in plain language, and work alongside you — not just for you.
There are no forms to fill in before speaking to someone. Here's exactly what to expect.
Speak directly with Rifat — in English or Turkish. Tell us a little about your situation. No pressure, no commitment required.
We'll go through your NDIS plan in plain language — what's funded, what's available, and what might help you reach your goals.
If we're a good fit, we can usually get started within a few days. Switching providers is straightforward and we'll help you at no cost.
"Rifat knows his stuff, he is extremely helpful and goes above and beyond. Highly recommended."
"Great company to deal with. Nothing is too much trouble. Highly recommend Rifat and his company."
"Rifat gives his all to make sure you are listened to and is a great problem solver — he acts quickly when issues arise. He is a kind, compassionate, helpful, knowledgeable and very respectful man. Definitely five stars from me."
Every participant's journey looks different. Here are a couple of examples of what working together can look like.
One participant came to us working toward employment, but he was quiet and often went unheard when he spoke. We worked together on building his confidence, connected him with the right employment supports, and helped him prepare for and pass his learner's permit. Today, he's not just heard — he's often the one making everyone laugh.
A mother and her daughters came to us while in transitional accommodation, facing homelessness. We worked closely together — navigating housing options, coordinating supports, and advocating every step of the way — until they moved into a permanent home: a place they can call their own for the rest of their lives.
NDIS planınızı anlamakta zorlanıyor musunuz? Rifat ile doğrudan Türkçe konuşabilirsiniz. Plan koordinasyonu ve tüm NDIS süreçlerinde yanınızdayız — karışıklık yok, bekleme yok.
Not sure if we're the right fit? That's completely fine — just reach out and we'll have an honest conversation. If we can't help, we'll point you in the right direction.
Inclusive Minds is growing, and we're looking for support workers and coordinators who want to do this work properly — not race through appointments, not treat people like a case file, but actually show up for the people they support. If that sounds like you, we'd love to hear from you.
Your feedback — good or bad — helps us improve. If something hasn't gone the way you expected, please let us know. Every concern is taken seriously and responded to promptly.
You also have the right to make a complaint directly to the NDIS Quality and Safeguards Commission at any time, without it affecting your services with us.
