CatholicCare has partnered with developers and housing providers to offer apartment concierge support to people living with disability. Concierge support allows participants to live in a Specialist Disability Accommodation (SDA) apartment of their choice.
Participants contribute a portion of their funding to have CatholicCare deliver onsite concierge support. It provides participants with flexibility to choose a different in-home support provider whilst knowing CatholicCare will be available to provide onsite 24/7 on-call unplanned support between the hours of your scheduled and other supports.
