NDIS housing options can sometimes leave you feeling like you’re in a maze.

Let’s break it down simply for you.

SIL (Supported Independent Living)

  • Focus: Support

  • Covers: Daily assistance

  • Housing: Usually shared homes

Think: Support to live independently


SDA (Specialist Disability Accommodation)

  • Focus: The building

  • Covers: Purpose-built housing for high needs

  • Does NOT include daily support

Think: The physical home


ILO (Individualised Living Options)

  • Focus: Flexible living arrangements

  • Can include living alone or with others

  • More personalised support

Think: A tailored living setup


Why these matter to you

Choosing the wrong pathway can delay support and create stress.

Choosing the right one can:

  • Improve independence

  • Reduce family pressure

  • Create long-term stability

Our belief

There is no “one right answer” for everyone.

But there is a right fit for each person.
