What Is Supported Independent Living (SIL) in Perth?

Supported Independent Living (SIL) is an NDIS-funded support that helps you live as independently as possible—either in your own home or in shared accommodation. SIL is designed for people who want to strengthen their independence while still receiving the support they need.

Supports can include:


  • Meal planning and preparation
  • Personal care and hygiene
  • Medication management
  • Assistance with appointments
  • Participation in community activities


If you’ve been searching for “supported independent living near me,” we offer safe, modern homes across Perth that are thoughtfully designed to meet your specific needs.

Who Is Supported by Independent Living For?

SIL is ideal for individuals who:

  • Have SIL funding in their NDIS plan
  • Would like to live independently or share a home with like-minded individuals
  • Require 24/7 or high-level daily support
  • Are ready to build their capabilities and achieve greater independence


We work with people of all ages, abilities, and backgrounds. If you’re unsure whether SIL is right for you, our team is happy to guide you through the eligibility process.

How Does Supported Independent Living Work With the NDIS?

We’re often asked, “Is SIL covered by the NDIS?”

Yes—it is. Your NDIS SIL budget funds the cost of support staff to help you build independence and live your life more fully.

🛑 Please note: SIL does not cover rent, food, or utility bills, but we’ll work closely with you to clarify what’s included.

Steps to Access SIL:

  1. Confirm that SIL is part of your NDIS plan
  2. Choose the right provider and support team
  3. Set goals and start planning for your next chapter
