Project Friday is looking to drive change in SDA residential principles. Through innovation at both the design and consumer ends of the development cycle, we want to inspire new ideas and solutions that truly create a better way of living for Melbourne-based SDA participants looking for a home they can be proud of. As an NDIS registered provider, we believe that it is critical that the physical surrounding has been designed with the participant’s mobility and functionality in mind. In essence, providing independent living solutions without sacrificing the overall architectural design.

Visit WebsiteWe partner with some of the best builders, developers and architects in Australia to provide access to Specialist Disability Accommodation (SDA) and Supported Independent Living (SIL) to help you live life on your terms.
Claro is the SIL provider for SDA properties and providers across Australia. If long term housing is part of your NDIS plan, we'd love to speak to you about how Claro can help you make that a reality.
Supported Independent Living, or SIL, refers to a group of NDIS supports that help you live more independently. SIL funding pays for personal support with everyday tasks like cooking and cleaning, and activities outside the home like grocery shopping or catching public transport. It can also fund supports so you can build these skills over time.
SIL is intended for participants with significant support needs, like a carer for most of the day. Generally participants who receive SIL share a home with other NDIS participants. The amount of SIL funding in a participant’s plan will depend on their support needs, living arrangements, and the other supports funded in their plan. Some people who need assistance with tasks like cooking or getting ready in the morning don’t need assistance for most of the day. SIL might not be the best support option in this case, and you might receive funding for other home and living supports.
Understanding what features suit your preferences and funding are key. Do you have a suburb or catchment area within which you would like to live? Do you need to be close to medical services, or public transport? Do you wish to live alone or with others? The Claro SDA finder (link) lets you filter by area, dwelling type, SDA design category and more, so you can see which homes are available. If you don’t see the perfect home we recommend still reaching out to our helpful team – one of our SDA partners may have the perfect home for you in their portfolio or in the pipeline and we are happy to refer you.
The 4 SDA categories are; Improved Livability, which are designed for people with sensory, intellectual or cognitive impairments and feature high contrast fittings to improve visibility, easy to use switches and handles and clear pathways which make homes easier to navigate and understand. Fully Accessible homes feature step-free entryways, pathways and transitions, wide doorways and kitchens and bathrooms designed for easy access by people with significant disabilities or those who may use mobility aids. High Physical Support is for very high physical needs, including features like assistive technology, emergency power back up, ceiling hoist provisions and structural considerations for future customisation or the implementation of complex equipment. Robust is the final category, tailored for individuals needing extra safety due to behaviours of concern – strong building materials, secure windows and doors, soundproofing and retreat areas are common features. Note that Claro does not currently provide SIL services within Robust SDA environments.
