Established in South Australia in 1984 as Community Living for the Disabled Incorporated, DLi began its journey by providing long-term accommodation and support for young adults who had reached a stage where their traditional housing options had narrowed.

Since then, DLi has grown significantly to now employ over 260 support staff in multiple locations across metropolitan Adelaide and its regions to provide disability services, including:

Supported Independent Living (SIL)

Social and Community Participation

In-Home Support

Short and Medium Term Accommodation (STA & MTA)

Specialist Behaviour Support

Today DLi currently supports participants on the NDIS age 7+ for Specialist Behaviour Support and other supports on an age appropriate assessment.

DLi provides support to clients across the needs spectrum, from low-level support to high and complex support needs including High Intensity Daily Personal Activities supports.

DLi currently provide SIL services across 19 sites and STA services in 2 sites, along with community-based participation and in-home services across Adelaide and its regions.
