News Story Summary:
'Home in Place' is a global leader in the delivery of social housing and the fight against housing poverty.
What is Community Housing?
Social housing is made up of two types of housing, government public housing and community housing which is managed by not-for-profit agencies such as Home in Place.
Community housing is subsidised rental housing provided by not-for-profit, non-government organisations and is targeted at households on low incomes or who would otherwise struggle to find suitable accommodation.
Home in Place believe community housing is about much more than providing accommodation.
It’s also about building communities which is why we’re dedicated to making sure our tenants have a voice and are actively engaged in their communities.
In addition to professional tenancy management, Home in Place continues to be an industry leader in the provision of additional wraparound services that help sustain tenancies and delivering tenant engagement initiatives that help foster greater economic and social participation.
Information for NSW Applicants:
Social/community housing is available to people on low incomes who cannot afford to own or rent in the private market.
In NSW, Home in Place participates in Housing Pathways, a shared access system used by public and community housing providers together, to assess clients for housing assistance and to make offers of housing.
This shared system avoids the duplication of separate waiting lists, and makes it easier, simpler and fairer to apply for housing.
