Alternative Living Arrangements

Reimagining Housing for Your Child's Future

As a parent of a young adult with a disability, you may be concerned about their future living arrangements. Traditional group homes are not the only answer. We offer a range of innovative housing ideas and options that promote independence and choice.

Whether you’re planning for the future or looking to start your child’s journey to independent living now, we’re here to help you explore possibilities beyond the conventional.

ILO

Individualised Living Options

Traditional group home not for you? There are other options! Individualised Living Options (ILOs) help you live more independently in the community.

ILOs, provide a flexible, person-centred approach to independent living. Whether it’s co-residency with a housemate, or living with a host family, ILOs allow individuals to design their ideal living environment.

SIL

Supported Independent Living

Supported Independent Living (SIL) is designed for individuals who require regular support while living in shared accommodations. We tailor SIL arrangements to foster independence while ensuring safety and comfort.

Our team will collaborate with you to create a personalised roster of care that aligns with your NDIS funding. SIL offers stability and structured support to help you live as independently as possible.

Out of the Box Thinking

We’re courageously creative. We fearlessly innovate and challenge NDIS norms. We’ll work with you to help create the right living option for you.

For example, we help create communities in which people with disabilities can live independently, in their own apartment, but with the backup of support workers on site 24/7. We think communities like these can be the ideal mix of independence, social participation and safety, and may suit many NDIS participants far more than traditional NDIS options.

Navigating the NDIS system can be daunting, but it doesn’t have to be. We help you achieve your goals.
