Supported Independent Living (SIL)

What is Supported Independent Living?

Supported independent living is paid personal support. It includes things like having someone to help with personal care or cooking meals. It is one type of help or supervision with daily tasks to help you live as independently as possible and build your skills.

Supported independent living is best suited to people with a disability who have higher support needs. This means you need a significant amount of help throughout the day, 7 days a week. This includes overnight support.

You can get supported independent living if you live with other NDIS participants or if you live on your own. Remember, supported independent living is only one of the many support options. There might be other home and living supports that suit you better.

If you need support to live with people who are not participants, we will look at other home and living supports, such as personal care support or individualised living options.
