Cairns – Supported Independent Living Provider

We offer Independent Supported Living for Cairns residents

Quality Living and Support Services (QLSS) provides Supported Independent Living (SIL) services to people with disability across Cairns and surrounding areas.

Whether you live with other NDIS participants or in your own home, our experienced support team is committed to providing safe, respectful, and person-centred support that empowers you to live life your way.
