Policy & Procedure Pack
NDIS Supported Independent Living
- Built around the new SIL Practice Standards
- Carefully built by an NDIS Lead Auditor
- No AI used to generate your policies
Everything in your SIL pack
Built around the four new SIL Practice Standards. Work through the questions and you download a zip: your policy and procedure manual, plus 23 forms, templates and registers, all branded to your business. The Word and Excel files are yours to keep and edit. Change something later? Log back in, update the answer, regenerate.
Your policy and procedure manual
One document, written from your answers, with a policy and procedure for each of the SIL Practice Standards:
- 1.Approach to Supported Independent Living (SIL) Supports
- 2.SIL Supported Decision-Making Policy and Procedure
- 3.SIL Safeguarding Policy and Procedure
- 4.SIL Practice Governance Policy and Procedure
- 5.Tenancy, Housing and Support Arrangements Policy and Procedure
Your Service Agreement clauses are derived from how you actually deliver SIL, so the agreement and the policies say the same thing.

Built from your answers
Rather than generic templates to customise, the Toolkit asks how your supports are actually delivered and writes the documents from that.
