Supported Independent Living (SIL) is the ongoing assistance you require to maintain as much independence as you can.
You have support staff to help you with daily duties around the house if you receive SIL funding. Support with personal care and chore management fall under this category. Taking a shower, getting dressed, cooking, eating, cleaning, and shopping are a few examples.
Additionally, our SIL staff works closely with you to improve your independence and daily life abilities. SIL supports are available to residents of Specialist Disability Accommodations (SDA).
People who require specialised housing solutions can receive SDA money from the NDIS. These persons must meet particular qualifying requirements and have very high assistance needs to live in SDA homes, which are adapted or specially built to make them more accessible.
