🤔 Understanding SDA Rent Contributions - made clear. https://www.veraliving.com.au/news/reasonable-rent-contribution-rrc-guide/

If you’re exploring Specialist Disability Accommodation (SDA), you’ve probably come across the term Reasonable Rent Contribution (RRC), but how is it actually calculated, and what does it mean for participants and families?

At Vera Living, we know funding and rental payments can be confusing. That’s why we’ve created a step-by-step guide to make RRC easier to understand, covering how rent is determined, what’s included, and what support coordinators need to know.

👉 Have you found RRC easy or challenging to navigate?

We’d love to hear your experiences as your feedback helps us shape clearer resources. 📚

With so much change happening across the NDIS, we know many participants, families and support coordinators have questions about SDA funding, plan reviews and finding the right home.

That’s why Vera Living is so excited to be part of ‘More Than One Way Home’, a panel and networking event where David Sims, Participant Engagement Manager at Vera Living, will be speaking alongside representatives from three other South Australian providers: Kanda, Adenium Living and Avenu

You can expect practical insights from our work across the sector, insights into the challenges professionals are navigating, and explore how we can work together to achieve better housing outcomes for participants.

📆 Wednesday 11th November 1.00pm - 3.00pm at the Adelaide Hills Convention Centre (following the Ready Set Connect event!)

What you’ll learn on the day:

✅ Managing expectations and setting participants up for success
✅ Navigating funding challenges when the right home doesn't quite align with a participant's plan
✅ How SDA and SIL providers can work together to support positive outcomes
✅ Navigating NDIS reviews when a participant's circumstances change

There will be a Q&A session with the panel so you can get your questions answered, followed by light refreshments and networking!

We cannot wait to welcome you! Register to secure your spot ASAP https://events.humanitix.com/more-than-one-way-home-adapting-to-ndis-change
