Supported Independent Living (SIL)

Empowering you to live independently while receiving the personalized support you need to achieve your goals and thrive in your community.

Understanding SIL

What is Supported Independent Living?

Supported Independent Living (SIL) is an NDIS-funded support that helps you live as independently as possible with 24/7 rostered care tailored to your needs. As a registered NDIS provider, Summit delivers person-centred SIL across Sydney and NSW — specialising in acquired brain injury (ABI), spinal cord injury, physical disability, intellectual disability, and psychosocial support. Our participant-first approach means we find the right home for you, whether that's a shared living arrangement or individual support in any suitable property.
