Australia's Most Trusted SDA Housing Provider

Finalist Best Disability Accommodation Provider of the Year

Choice Collective

At Enliven Housing, our mission is to empower Australians with disability by providing opportunities for independent living. That’s why we’ve developed the Choice Collective – an inclusive, modern and forward-thinking housing solution designed so you can get the most from your NDIS core support budget.

Your SDA Journey

What is Choice Collective?

Choice Collective is a unique NDIS independent living option. This innovative form of housing is a governance framework that allows members to combine their resources through common equity, optimising their NDIS funding for enhanced support. It’s an innovative approach that combines affordable housing with a supportive and inclusive environment, fostering independence and enhancing the quality of life.

Your Enliven Housing apartment is independent of your formal support arrangements. It’s not a Supported Independent Living home or a Group Home. Instead, we give you the opportunity to be part of the Choice Collective.

By being part of the Choice Collective, you can enjoy the advantages of credit unions and their offerings, fostering a sense of financial well-being and community engagement.

SDA Housing FAQs

Our Choice Collective model actively encourages and supports people with disabilities to have choice and control over issues that directly affect them.

We offer independent housing with the opportunity to have an Onsite Support Provider. Enliven Housing tenants commit to being members of the Choice Collective, which operates as a collective for the benefit of everyone.

By sharing onsite support with the Choice Collective, we make privacy, autonomy and independence more achievable for everyone.

The Choice Collective operates with a single Onsite Support Provider based at the Hub. In the case of a new building, Enliven Housing selects the initial support provider. However, after the initial term, the Choice Collective decides on the support provider.

The Collective collaborates closely with the Onsite Support Provider to establish the framework for shared support arrangements.

We established the Collective to empower individuals to influence the intersection of their housing requirements and support arrangements.

Additionally, the Collective may explore collective purchasing, leveraging economies of scale for the benefit of each member. Some examples of potential collective purchases include:

  • Internet services
  • Pharmacy home deliveries
  • Bundling utilities
  • Additional shared support or activities
  • Bulk purchase of groceries

The Hub is the designated apartment within the development where the onsite support staff are stationed.

The Hub is easily accessible through the smart technology in your apartment, via your mobile phone or by visiting in person.

Enliven Housing enters into a Deed of License with the Onsite Support Provider, granting them permission for the use of the Hub apartment.

The Choice Collective makes this decision.

Tenants moving into the complex will jointly decide who provides onsite shared support, the extent to which supports will be shared, how they will be shared and how much each tenant will contribute to the arrangement.

Enliven will support the Collective in exploring the options available and in making formal arrangements.

In the case of a new building, Enliven Housing selects the initial Onsite Support Provider. However, after the initial term, the performance of the chosen provider is assessed by the Choice Collective.

If there are performance shortfalls, efforts are made to address and manage them to ensure an improvement in service delivery.

Should this process prove ineffective, the Choice Collective has the authority to request Enliven Housing to explore and secure an alternative provider.
