SIL Services

Supported Independent Living for People with Disability

Supported Independent Living (SIL) is a type of NDIS funding that provides support in your home so you can live as independently as possible. 

It helps with everyday tasks like preparing meals, managing appointments, personal care and building confidence in your daily routines. 

SIL can be used in shared homes with support available at all times. The funding pays for qualified support staff, but it does not cover rent or everyday expenses. 

We also offer SIL services in our disability housing if you are looking for both support and a place to live. 

Our team can guide you through how your funding works and help you choose the support that fits your goals and needs. If you have unspent funding, we can also help you use it for supports that build skills, connection and independence.

Your Questions Answered (FAQs)

Supported Independent Living (SIL) is a type of National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) funding that provides support in your home so you can live as independently as possible. It helps with everyday tasks such as preparing meals, personal care, home routines and building independent living skills.

Supported Independent Living (SIL) funds the support you receive in your home, while Specialist Disability Accommodation (SDA) funds the physical home itself for people with higher support needs. Some people receive both types of funding. 

If you would like a simple explanation of how these supports work, you can read our guide to SIL and SDA. 

We also have SIL within SDA homes for people who are looking for both extra support and a place to live. 

View our current home vacancies.

You can receive Supported Independent Living (SIL) in a shared home, Specialist Disability Accommodation (SDA), a home you own or rent or housing provided through community or government services. We also offer SIL in our purpose-built homes if you need both support and a home.

You may be eligible for Supported Independent Living (SIL) if you need regular help with daily living tasks, personal care, home routines or overnight support. Eligibility is assessed by the NDIS. Our team can help you understand the requirements and whether SIL is the right fit for your needs.

Supported Independent Living is funded through Core Supports under ‘Supported Independent Living’. 

Our team can help you understand how this funding works, what is included and how it connects with other Home and Living supports such as Specialist Disability Accommodation (SDA), Individualised Living Options (ILO) and In-Home Support.
