What is Supported Independent Living (SIL)?

​

Supported Independent Living (SIL) is an NDIS-funded service that helps people with disabilities live as independently as possible while receiving the daily support they need.

SIL is most often provided in shared living arrangements, but it can also be in your own home, depending on your plan and goals. The focus is on building independence, developing life skills, and ensuring you have the right level of support for your day-to-day needs.

 

​​​​

 SIL can include:

  • 24/7 support in a safe and comfortable home

  • Assistance with daily living tasks like cooking, cleaning, and laundry

  • Personal care (showering, dressing, grooming)

  • Support with managing routines, appointments, and medication

  • Help to access community activities, education, or employment

  • Building skills to live more independently over time

​

Important to know:​

  • SIL funding covers the supports—not the cost of rent, food, or utilities.

  • The type and level of support are tailored to your NDIS plan, your needs, and your personal goals.
