When it comes to your overall wellbeing, a stable housing situation makes all the difference in achieving a good quality of life.
This is particularly significant for NDIS participants as it has historically been particularly difficult for individuals with disabilities to obtain stable housing that meets their needs.
Individualised Living Options (ILO) is an NDIS support that helps participants to work out how they want to live including the location and people they live with.
This support lets participants choose the home they want to live in and helps them get set up with supports that suit them best, in their chosen home environment. It's worth noting that this doesn’t include paying for the home itself (e.g. rent or mortgage payments).
This quick explainer video with Provider Choice's Co-Founder and Head of NDIS Innovation, Jonathan Salgo, provides a quick, high-level overview of ILO and how this support could help participants.
