Specialist disability accommodation
Some people living with disability have very high support needs. This could mean they need to live in a specially designed home. We call this specialist disability accommodation.
Most participants don’t need to live in specialist disability accommodation, and there may be other home and living supports that are more suitable.
If you’re eligible for specialist disability accommodation, we’ll work out your specialist disability accommodation budget.
Note: when we say disability support needs, we mean supports you need for the impairments that meet the disability or early intervention requirements, or both.
