Specialist Disability Accommodation

A home that works for you

Specialist Disability Accommodation (SDA) is designed for people with significant functional impairment or very high support needs who require housing with specialised features.

What is SDA?

Housing designed around your needs

SDA refers to specially designed or modified housing for eligible NDIS participants with significant functional impairment or very high support needs.

These homes include features that can make everyday living safer, easier and more accessible, while giving you greater independence and choice within your own space.

Get started with us

SDA can include

  • Accessible home designs and features
  • Living arrangements suited to individual needs
  • Features that make everyday movement and routines easier
  • Options for shared or individual living
  • Assistance exploring suitable accommodation
  • Help with the transition into a new home

What this can look like

A home built for everyday living

Easier to move around

Accessible layouts and features can make navigating your home simpler and more comfortable.

More independence

The right environment can make it easier to complete everyday tasks and have greater control over your routines.

Your own space

Your home should give you privacy, comfort and somewhere that genuinely feels like your own.

Choice in how you live

Explore living arrangements that reflect your needs, preferences and the type of home life you want.

The right assistance around you

SDA can work alongside other funded services, including Supported Independent Living where appropriate.

More than just a house

It needs to feel like home

Accessibility is important, but there is more to choosing somewhere to live than the features of the building. The location, layout, people you may live with, your daily routine and how comfortable you feel in the space all matter too.

 

We take the time to understand what you are looking for so the conversation is about finding somewhere that suits your life, rather than simply finding an available property.

Finding the right fit

We understand that there’s a lot to consider

Choosing an SDA home can involve several decisions, particularly when you are balancing accessibility requirements with personal preferences and everyday life.

 

Depending on your circumstances, this may involve considering:

  • The type of home you would feel comfortable in
  • Accessibility features you require
  • Where you would like to live
  • Whether you prefer to live alone or with others
  • Proximity to family, community and regular activities
  • Other services you may need alongside your accommodation
  • Your routines and individual preferences
  • Planning for the transition into a new home

We can help you work through the different considerations and understand what matters most before moving forward.

The benefits of SDA

What the right home can change

The right living environment can make everyday life safer, easier and more comfortable. It can also give you greater freedom to make decisions about your routines, your space and how you spend your time.

 

At True Colours, we look beyond the property itself. We want to understand what you need from your home and how your accommodation fits into the bigger picture of your life.
