Who is Supported Independent Living Suitable for?
NDIS participants who are over the age of 18 who require high levels of support to carry out their daily household and personal tasks
What is I don’t want to live with other participants?
SIL is usually done in a house with multiple participants, meaning that the care is shared between the participants. It is a great way of working on your social skills,being part of a community and making friends. It is worth taking the time to speak to the team at RIISE and see what it looks like before you count it out. If it isn’t for you then there are other options that you can discuss with the RIISE team for your long-term accommodation needs
What isn’t covered under SIL funding?
The cost of rent and food is not covered under the SIL funding. The funding covers the care that you receive from the disability support workers whilst you live in the home.
