If you’re navigating the NDIS (National Disability Insurance Scheme), you’ve likely come across Specialist Disability Accommodation (SDA) and Supported Independent Living (SIL). While these supports often work together, they serve different purposes within your plan.
Understanding the difference between SDA funding and SIL funding can help you make the most of your NDIS plan and enjoy greater independence.
To make it easier, we’ve created a simple guide that clearly explains SDA and SIL, helping NDIS participants and their support networks understand which supports might suit their needs and how to use funding effectively. In this guide, we cover:
- Understanding the difference between SDA and SIL
- SDA overview
- SDA funding
- SIL overview
- SIL funding
- Can I have both SDA and SIL in my plan?
- How does Vera Living work with SIL providers?
