- Higher Support Needs: Assistance for those requiring significant or overnight support.

SIL Housing & The NDIS
Supported Independent Living (SIL) services are funded by the NDIS to help people with disabilities live more independently. At DisabilityCo, we make the process stress-free. First, we help you create your Roster of Care Submission for funding approval. Then, we guide you step by step to secure housing arrangements that meet your needs. Our goal is to make sure you feel confident and supported in your new home.
Bonding Opportunities for Housemates
Feeling at home starts with feeling connected. That’s why we give you the chance to meet your future housemates before moving in. Take part in fun activities like day outings or overnight stays in respite housing. You can also join casual meet-and-greet sessions with housemates and their families. These moments help you build relationships and settle into your new home with ease.
