At PIYC, we understand that where you live and who you live with significantly impact your well-being and independence. Our Individual Living Options (ILO) service is designed to provide flexible and personalized support, ensuring you have the right living arrangement that aligns with your preferences and goals. We work closely with you and your family to create a tailored package that offers both primary and supplementary supports, giving you greater control over your housing and lifestyle.
ILO offers a variety of living arrangements, from living with a host family to sharing a home with a supporting friend or co-resident. Participants can also explore options such as living with other NDIS participants while sharing supports, having a friendly neighbor for community engagement, or forming a circle of support for greater independence. Our goal is to create a supportive, sustainable, and empowering environment where you can thrive. Unlike traditional Supported Independent Living (SIL), ILO is built around individual needs rather than a structured group home model, allowing for more flexibility and autonomy in decision-making.
In addition to opening new housing opportunities, ILO also provides alternative rental options, host arrangements, and even possibilities for homeownership when combined with Specialist Disability Accommodation (SDA). We work with partners to explore innovative solutions that expand housing choices and ensure that individuals who may not qualify for SDA can still access secure, high-quality living arrangements. Through ongoing monitoring and adjustments, we ensure that your ILO setup continues to meet your needs.
We simplify the process of securing and maintaining an Individual Living Option that best suits you. Our team provides expert guidance, connects you with the right support networks, and ensures your living arrangements remain sustainable. We assist in setting up tailored support packages, helping you access rental or shared housing, and strengthening informal support systems. Our goal is to make independent living a reality while giving you complete choice and control.
PIYC is dedicated to creating a living solution that truly feels like home. Unlike group home settings, where decisions may be influenced by structured routines, we focus on empowering you to design your own lifestyle. Our experienced team works closely with you to explore innovative housing options, maximize NDIS funding, and develop a personalized support system. With a strong commitment to independence, flexibility, and well-being, we ensure that your ILO journey is smooth, sustainable, and tailored to your aspirations.
