What is Supported Independent Living (SIL)?
Supported Independent Living (SIL) is a service funded by the NDIS that helps people with disabilities live independently. It provides help with daily tasks like personal care, cooking, and learning new skills. This support allows individuals to make choices and be active in their communities.
How does SIL funding assist with independent living?
SIL funding gives personal support based on what each person needs. It covers help with personal care, household chores, and life skills training. This funding helps people overcome challenges and reach their personal goals.
Who can apply for SIL housing, and what support is available?
Eligible NDIS participants can apply for SIL housing with help from a planner or coordinator. They assist in finding safe homes that provide daily support. This ensures that everyone can find a place that meets their needs and feels comfortable. For further assistance, check our Contact Us page.
