Supported Independent Living (SIL)
NDIS supported independent living (SIL) is for people with higher support needs, who need some level of help at home all the time. SIL includes help or supervision with daily tasks, like personal care or cooking meals. It helps you live as independently as possible, while building your skills.

Short Term Accommodation
Short Term Accommodation
NDIS Short-Term Accommodation (STA), including respite, is funding for support and accommodation for a short time away from your usual home. It covers the cost of your care in away from your usual home for up to 14 days at a time (usually up to 28 days per year). You might have a short stay with other people, or by yourself, depending on your preferences and support needs.

Medium Term Accommodation
Medium Term Accommodation
Our Medium-Term Accommodation (MTA) is designed for NDIS participants who need temporary housing while waiting for long-term arrangements to be finalised.
Our MTA is provided in a purpose built, accessible, and inviting space that promotes inclusion, wellbeing, capacity building, and transitioning back into community.

Independant Living
Independant Living
Our Independent Living Options (ILO) are designed to support NDIS customers who want to live more independently while still having access to the right supports when needed. ILO focuses on creating tailored living arrangements that promote capacity building, personal growth, and increased autonomy.
GCLA facilitates co-tenancy matching to help individuals find compatible housemates, assists with sourcing appropriate accommodation, and provides flexible in-home and community supports based on each customer’s unique needs. Unlike Supported Independent Living (SIL), ILO does not offer 24/7 support but is designed to build skills and confidence for customers with the capacity to live more independently.
