A home of your own, with support that fits.

Supported Independent Living (SIL) is about having a home of your own - a real, comfortable place where you feel safe and valued - with the right support around you. Our accessible 2-bedroom homes in Glenorchy give you a welcoming base to build everyday living skills, make your own choices, and live the life you want. Support is shaped around you: your routines, your relationships, your goals. We work with you to understand what you need and what you're working towards, and put the right support in place to help you get there.

Frequently asked questions.

What is SIL?

Supported Independent Living (SIL) is NDIS support for people who want to live as independently as possible, with the right support around them. It usually means living in your own home or a shared home, with help for everyday tasks, building skills, and being part of your community. We offer SIL in our accessible Glenorchy homes.

How do I know if I'm eligible for SIL?

SIL is funded through your NDIS plan, and eligibility depends on your individual needs and goals. We work through suitability with you through a conversation and an assessment of needs and funding. If you're not sure whether SIL is right for you, get in touch and we'll help you understand your options.

What happens when a home is filled?

When one of our homes is taken, we keep a waitlist and contact people when a vacancy opens up. You can join the waitlist by filling in the enquiry form or calling our team on 1300 396 560.
