Specialist Disability Accommodation (SDA) is intended to provide eligible participants with housing that increases their independence and maximises social and economic participation, whilst delivering value for money. 

Anecdotal evidence provided to the Housing Hub suggests that many SDA providers are under significant financial pressure, due to ongoing uncertainties in the market, as well as challenges in dealing with the NDIA. This report provides the findings of a 2021 survey of SDA providers in Australia that set out to quantify and understand these issues.
