Applying for the Awards

The National Awards for Excellence in Community Housing have been established to recognise the achievements of the community housing sector and to encourage excellence.

THE NEXT NATIONAL AWARDS WILL BE HELD IN 2007.

At the 2000 Awards presentation Jenn Crowe, Manager of the Good Practice Unit at the NSW Federation of Housing Associations, commented that the Awards provide:

"a chance to sit back and have the opportunity to share with each other those things we do that we are so proud of - the differences we make, the people we assist, our creative and passionate commitment that is constantly tested - these are the reasons we are here tonight and these are why we have so many reasons to celebrate!"

The Awards are presented by the National Awards Council, under the auspices of the National Community Housing Forum as part of its role in building national infrastructure for community housing.

 
  The National Awards for Excellence in Community Housing were established in 1999, and are open to all non-government and local government organisations involved in the development and provision of community housing. The objectives of the Awards are to:
  identify and recognise best practice in the provision of community housing;
  encourage a culture of continuous improvement within the community housing sector;
  make available information and resources to assist community housing providers and administrators achieve best practice in the management and delivery of community housing; and
  promote community housing as a high quality provider of social housing.
