REPORT<br />

Vanessa Vella-Adams<br />

Accommodation Manager<br />

<strong>NADO</strong> offers a wide range of<br />

flexible accommodation support<br />

services that allow people with a<br />

disability to build independence,<br />

participate in the community and<br />

maintain good communication<br />

with families, friends and their<br />

circle of supports.<br />

<strong>NADO</strong> currently provides Supported<br />

Independent Living (SIL) housing<br />

accommodation to ten sites across<br />

the Penrith region and we are excited<br />

to announce that we will be opening<br />

our eleventh SIL house in Glenmore<br />

Park early September <strong>2021</strong>.<br />

September <strong>2020</strong> we opened a<br />

SIL home in St Clair – two of the<br />

residents of the new home had<br />

been residing in <strong>NADO</strong>’s shortterm<br />

accommodation waiting for<br />

a suitable long term option. The<br />

residents had the opportunity to<br />

get to know each other and decided<br />

they were compatible for living<br />

together long-term with another<br />

two men who were already living in<br />

a shared house together.
