Our communities: Many people coming into social housing have poor health, may have experienced disadvantage and trauma. This can often result in feeling isolated and disconnected. Once they have a place to live, we work to rebuild a safe and secure world around them through our investment in community development initiatives. A house is a building. A home is a house filled with people who care for each other. A neighbourhood however, is a community of homes where people feel they belong to something enduring and supportive, in which they can actively participate. Neighbourhoods are vital to delivering stable tenancies and providing access to opportunity, employment, education, good health and wellbeing. Good neighbourhoods make stable societies and stronger economies.
