Living in supported housing means people have a Tenancy Agreement - the place they live is their own home. Supported Living is not just for people who are 'able'. Anyone can be supported to live in their own home with the right support.
Why Supported Living?
Individuals have more of their own income in Supported Living because they can get the full range of income support and allowances.
Supported living means that people are supported to live in the way that they want.
In supported living, people are supported to take control of their life.
They are tenants and pay rent.
Support is dependent on the needs of the people who live there - it could be 24 hours a day, or a few hours a week.
