Councils and Community Organisations
Community Groups - Overview
Community groups and organisations make a vital contribution to housing in New Zealand. The Government is committed to supporting them to increase their involvement in providing social housing.
The main vehicle for this is the Housing Innovation Fund. The Fund has enabled a number of community groups to build, buy or plan for new housing in areas of high need.
The Housing Innovation Fund also led to the establishment of Community Housing Aotearoa - an umbrella organisation for the not-for-profit community housing sector.
The Housing Innovation Fund is currently under review and further information will be posted once the review is complete.
