SUPPORTED INDEPENDENT LIVING

Supported Independent Living (SIL) is when NDIS participants receive support, usually 24/7, to help each person develop skills so that they can live as independently as possible.

This can sometimes be a group of people sharing a home together, or one person receiving support in their own home.



Within the SIL arrangement, your support team will assist you to learn the following skills:

Personal Care Cooking Household Tasks Budgeting Shopping Catching Public Transport Accessing Social Activities Building other Life Skills



To assist you in arranging a SIL, we can provide you with the needed support to:

Secure suitable accommodation – MADEC can provide transitional housing at affordable rates. Find compatible housemates – MADEC can arrange meet and greets, as well as trial weekend stays to ensure that your new housemates suit you. Plan the transition to SIL – for some individuals it may be a 12-month pathway, so start the conversation today.



Supported Independent Living is an exciting arrangement that will benefit you. Become independent, make new friends, have choice and control, feel safe and secure, enjoy freedom and exciting opportunities and be confident that you have the support you need, when you need it, by starting the conversation with MADEC and beginning the transition to your new SIL.
