Supported Independent Living (SIL)

Supported Independent Living (SIL) is a support category under the NDIS that provides funding for individuals with disabilities to live independently. SIL offers various options, including shared accommodation, supported group homes, individual living arrangements, and transitional accommodation. It aims to support individuals in developing skills, accessing necessary assistance, and promoting their independence in daily living activities. SIL empowers participants to lead fulfilling lives and engage in their communities while receiving the necessary support to live independently.
