Supported Independent Living

Independent living services tailored to you

If living independently is important to you, then it’s important to us too. We offer ongoing support for people with disability in our supported disability accommodation or assistance for people to live in their own home.

Everyone is unique and we want to make sure you get to live your life, your way. Our services give you the opportunity to enjoy your local community and run your own household.

Living in a safe environment, being part of your local community and having access to quality support can unlock new opportunities and build independence.

Our homes and locations

Our supported independent living homes provide 24-hour assistance. Houses are in the suburbs and look no different to any other in the community. Homes can be modified and fitted with aides to support residents to enjoy their homes safely and happily.

Our disability housing is located in the following local government areas:

• Darebin
• Whittlesea
• Hume
• Moreland
• Brimbank
• Maribyrnong
• Moonee Valley

Is this for me?

Supported independent living homes cater for people aged from 16 to 65 who need ongoing daily support to live independently in their community. Vacancies are managed by the Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS).

To register your interest in disability residential care, complete a Disability Support Register application and send it to the DHHS Vacancy Coordination Unit.

Our approach

We take a person-centred approach and tailor supports to meet each person's needs. Together, we create an individual plan that outlines your goals and preferences so we can support you to reach them.

These goals may include a plan for the support you need to:

• enjoy your leisure time
• develop your interests or skills
• learn daily living skills — including cleaning, shopping or money handling
• participate in the local community, take public transport or join social events

Support in your home

We can help you to design your living arrangements in your own home based on your goals, interests and needs.

We’ll work with you to create a tailored plan for in-home support, from a few hours each day through to 24-hour assistance.

We can assist you with personal care, daily living needs, social and community participation and skill development.
