Neighbourhood Renewal
What is Neighbourhood Renewal?
Neighbourhood Renewal is a long-term commitment by the State Government to narrow the gap between disadvantaged communities and the rest of the State. It is a new approach that brings together the resources and ideas of residents, governments, businesses and community groups to tackle disadvantage in areas with concentrations of public housing. Neighbourhood Renewal is creating vibrant places where people want to live.
