Eden Housing · SDA eligibility guide
Could SDA be worth exploring?
Use this plain-language reflection guide to organise questions for your my NDIS contact and treating professionals. It is not an official eligibility decision.
Four areas to explore
Self-reflection checklist
Questions to discuss—not a score
Select any statements that describe the current situation. Your answers stay on this page and are not sent or saved.
If several statements are relevant, use them as discussion prompts with your my NDIS contact, support coordinator and treating professionals. You can also review the official NDIS home and living request steps.

How an SDA conversation can develop
This replaces the old flattened infographic with readable, selectable HTML text that reflows on every screen size.
Describe the problem
Record current housing barriers, risks, informal supports and the impact on daily life.
Clarify the goal
Explain where and how the person wants to live, and what a suitable home would make possible.
Explore alternatives
Consider other home and living supports and document why they may not meet disability-related needs.
Gather evidence
Ask relevant treating professionals to provide recent, specific and functional evidence.

What strong housing evidence connects
Useful evidence connects functional impact, the current environment, required supports and the outcome being requested.
Functional impact
What the person can and cannot do because of disability, including mobility, self-care, communication and self-management.
Housing barriers
Specific features, risks or circumstances in the current home that make daily life or support delivery difficult.
Support frequency
What support, aid, modification or supervision is required, when it is required and how often.
Options and outcomes
What other options were considered, why they do not meet the need, and what suitable housing would achieve.
Build a clearer housing goal
Three parts of a useful goal

Describe the current barriers or risks in concrete, everyday language.
What should be possible?

What is the next action?
