What is STA ?

Short-Term Accommodation (STA) is NDIS-funded support that offers safe, temporary stays for participants who need respite, extra assistance, or a chance to build independence. At Dantae Support Services, we provide flexible, tailored support with daily living, social activities, and personal care, helping participants feel safe, valued, and confident while enjoying new experiences.
