NDISDA National Future-Ready Specialist Disability Accommodation Conferences 2026
Advancing Policy, Practice, and Investment in Disability Housing
​
Since 2020, SDA Conferences and Events has hosted over 35 national conferences, establishing a trusted platform for knowledge-sharing, sector collaboration, and professional development in Specialist Disability Accommodation.
In 2026, NDISDA - the sectors National SDA Professional Network , in partnership with Impact Housing National Strategic Alliance and SILSDA and event delivery partner SDA Conferences and Events, continues this legacy with its Future-Ready Conference Series, uniting SDA, SIL, and community housing professionals across Australia.
​
These conferences are more than events -they are curated, state-specific gatherings designed to provide clarity, practical strategies, and forward-looking insights into the rapidly evolving SDA landscape.
Across the nation, providers and investors face major policy and regulatory reform, including changes to SDA design standards, pricing structures, compliance and inspection regimes, and integration with transitional and community-based housing pathways. NDISDA’s conferences address these challenges head-on, equipping the sector with actionable strategies to strengthen governance, protect participant outcomes, and ensure sustainable operations.
​
Each conference delivers a comprehensive program tailored to local priorities while maintaining a national perspective. Delegates explore policy reform, housing design, investment and financial models, compliance, transitional housing pathways, and participant-centred solutions, all through the lens of practical, real-world application.
These gatherings foster cross-sector collaboration, innovation, and leadership, ensuring attendees are prepared to navigate a highly scrutinised and dynamic environment.
​
Who should attend?
These conferences are essential for SDA and SIL providers, community housing organisations, investors, architects, builders, developers, allied health professionals, support coordinators, government representatives, hospital discharge planners, and anyone involved in disability-inclusive housing, policy, or investment.
​
Why attend?
By participating, delegates gain early insight into policy, regulatory, and market developments, practical frameworks for risk mitigation, and opportunities to strengthen partnerships across government, housing, health, and support sectors.
NDISDA conferences are designed to connect professionals at every stage of their SDA journey -from emerging practitioners to experienced leaders shaping policy and practice—while ultimately improving outcomes for participants and communities.
​
