Supported Independent Living
Discover the perfect housing solution that enables you to embrace a more independent lifestyle, all while ensuring you receive the necessary support tailored to your needs.
What is Supported Independent Living (SIL)?
Supported Independent Living (SIL) is sometimes called group or shared accommodation. It is an NDIS support where a person with a disability lives in a house with other people. People who live in SIL or shared accommodation also receive day-to-day support with tasks including cleaning, grocery shopping, cooking, and help with personal care (such as laundry, showering, and dressing). SIL and Shared accommodations often suit those who are unable to live on their own or with their family.
Furthermore, Supported Independent Living (SIL) is the assistance with and/or supervising tasks of daily life in a shared living environment, with a focus on developing the skills of each individual to live as autonomously as possible. Support is provided to each person living in a shared arrangement in accordance with their need. And focus on maximizing the person’s capacity to be as independent as possible with household decision-making, personal care, and domestic tasks.
SIL does not include rent, board, lodging, or other day-to-day usual living expenses such as food and activities. It also does not include the capital costs associated with a participant’s accommodation.
