People with disabilities fight against a lot of odds to overcome various disability
barriers and build a life for themselves where they have choice and control over their way of
living.
Living independently is a dream that’s often put on hold by people with disabilities
due to their high care needs and lack of proper disability support. Supported Independent
Living (SIL) is one of the many home and living support options available to NDIS
participants that allows them to live independently like others and pursue a living option that
makes them happy and boosts their morale.
Supported Independent Living (SIL) is a type of support that helps NDIS participants over the age of 18 to move out of their parent’s home and live with other housemates who
also have the same type of funding.
One of the primary goals of the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) is to
help people with disabilities to live independently and build their capacity to take care of
themselves and become active members of their community.
