Supported Independent Living (SIL)

Supported independent living is one type of support to help you live in your home, normally for people with higher support needs, who need some level of help at home all the time. It includes help or supervision with daily tasks, and helps you live as independently as possible, while building your skills. With SIL management, we provide 24/7, around-the-clock care, a support worker is always there, offering you emotional support, reducing fall risk, and assisting in all activities of daily living including:

We have multiple homes that have 24/7 staffing but also provide for an integrated community living option. Living at a SIL home, you are expected to identify and work with the team towards your goals and aspirations for your recovery and work, share household tasks, develop a healthy lifestyle, and receive education on budgeting skills, effective shopping, and nutritious diet. You will also be supported to understand the impacts of the challenges you face and how to stay well and grow in your autonomy and independence.
