HOPE DISABILITY
Housing Services
Disabled people face numerous challenges in finding housing. Inadequate accessibility, lack of available units and high costs are some of the main challenges that disabled people face when searching for accommodation. It is not only a problem for disabled people looking to find an apartment or house; it also affects their family members who wish to live nearby.
The housing needs of disabled people are often ignored by developers and landlords who do not think about how their properties will be accessible to those with a disability before renting them out. Fortunately, there are services available that can help these individuals secure long-term accommodations at an affordable price. We have compiled a list of the top disability support providers in Sydney, Australia that can assist you in finding appropriate accommodations.

Short Term Accommodation (Respire Care)
Respite Care is a home care agency that provides respite services for people with a disability. Respite is when a family member, friend, or professional caregiver cares for someone with a disability during a temporary period of rest, recovery, or “down-time” from another caregiver. Respite provides assistance to individuals with disabilities who require assistance with daily tasks while they are at home. Services offered by Respire Care include household assistance, light household maintenance, and help with medical appointments.
Specialized Disability Accommodations
Specialized disability accommodation services, such as those run by the RSP, offer all the necessary tools to help individuals with a disability make their homes more accessible. These companies allow disabled people to consider their needs when designing a new home. These companies also have the ability to negotiate with landlords and manage results so that disabled people have the best chance of finding the right home. If you are looking to make your home more accessible for a disabled loved one, you will find that these companies can help you find the right solutions for your situation.
Supported Independent Living (SIL)
A person who has been diagnosed with a physical or intellectual disability is referred to as a “person with a disability” or “divide.” The person may also be referred to as “an individual with a disability.” A person without a disability is referred to as a non-divided. A person without a disability may be a person who has a diagnosed disability (such as a person with an intellectual disability or a person with a physical disability), or a person who is not diagnosed with a disability but experiences challenges associated with a disability (such as being illiterate or having low education). In Australia, people with disabilities are entitled to a range of government-funded support services. The Auscommunity website has a comprehensive list of disability support services in Australia. You can also contact the Australian Disability Support Association (AusDSA) or any of the many disability support providers listed in our article.
