Supported Independent Living
Unique Support Services can provide supported independent living to eligible participant’s so that they may achieve their goals. We provide the support required for daily tasks to assist in living as independently as possible.
What is Supported Independent Living (SIL)?
NDIS-funded SIL arrangements provide assistance with supervising tasks of daily life in a personal living environment. Funding includes having support workers that clients may need in order to achieve their independent living goals. Unique Support Services focuses on developing the skills of each individual to live as independently as possible.
SIL arrangements usually do not include day to day living expenses such as food and activities, or the costs of the individual’s accommodation. Clients with a SIL arrangement may also have Specialist Disability Accommodation (SDA) package, which covers the cost of the physical accommodation.
We support SIL arrangements via our small, local Neighborhood Teams
