Individualised Living Options (ILO)
What are Individualised Living Options (ILO)?
Individualised Living Options (ILO) is an NDIS support that helps people with disability live in a home that suits them. It gives you flexibility to live alone or with others you choose, while accessing the supports you need to live independently.
