The goal of the Independent Living Support Initiative (ILSI) is to help people with a disability who have ageing carers and who aspire to live more independently in the community, to achieve that aim and to develop stable long-term accommodation arrangements.
ILSI provides person centred intensive training and formal support services, and helps families develop their own support networks. This initiative is funded by Ageing, Disability and Home Care, Dept of Family and Community Services NSW, and has been designed in collaboration and consultation with Down Syndrome NSW, UnitingCare Disability and House With No Steps (Hunter Region).
Thank you to everyone that has completed an Expression of Interest or application form for the second ILSI intake. Applications have now closed as of 1st March 2012.
Over the coming weeks there will be a number of information sessions held around NSW which will help to inform the community on the Independent Living Support Initiative (ILSI).
