The Supported Living Fund is an initiative that aims to provide people with a disability, their families and carers greater opportunity to create a good life, and build person centred and sustainable living arrangements. The focus is on giving people with a disability, their families and carers a truly flexible and individualised option in the planning of ongoing living supports.
Ageing, Disability and Home Care (ADHC) through Stronger Together Two, commits a total of 300 Supported Living Fund packages across NSW (100 each in 2011/12, 2012/13 and 2013/14), totalling $60 million over five years.
The opportunity to formally register an interest in accessing a Supported Living Fund package is now open. People with a disability who are planning or considering moving to a supported living arrangement are encouraged to register with ADHC.
Please note that Expressions of Interest for this intake round will close on Friday the 27th January, 2012. Note, there will be further rounds later in 2012, and also in 2013.

Family Advocacy took the lead in campaigning for the implementation of a Supported Living Fund in NSW. Their Supported Living website provides excellent information on the concept and its realisation for individual people.
