ABOUT
In January 23, 1960, the Trieste sea vessel became the first ever submarine to reach the Mariana Trench, the deepest oceanic trench on earth, at a depth of 10,916 metres. The temperature at the Mariana Trench is degrees above freezing, and the pressure is 15,750psi – over a thousand times greater than atmospheric pressure, it was assumed that no life could survive the immense pressure. Despite these extreme conditions and external pressures, the discovery of life was not only surviving but thriving at that depth. Trieste reached its goal, and completed what was previously considered impossible.
We understand the challenges and pressures associated with reaching your goals but, at Trieste Foundation, we believe that with the right support and encouragement, every person can achieve their goals and live a thriving life.
The Directors at Trieste Foundation have almost 30 years combined experience in facilitating in-home support services, goal-setting, case management, service coordination, and management, and hold relevant post-graduate qualifications. We have a sound understanding of the NDIS and how it can be best utilised so that participants can realise the lifestyle they want, reach their goals, and receive appropriate person-centred supports.
