What is supported independent living, or SIL?

Supported independent living (SIL) is an NDIS support package where you live with other people with disability, or on your own.

Living independently means different things for different people. Tell us what independent living with disability looks like for you and we will help make it happen.

For some people independent living is a lift to the shopping centre, or a night out in one of our cars with friends. For others it is having a support person close by, day or night, to share the serious stuff and a few laughs along the way.

SIL can include support for daily tasks like cooking, cleaning and personal care. We will chat with you about what you want from your SIL support package. Then together we will find SIL properties that will feel great to come home to.
