It should not be wrong if we call it a social affliction noticing the wide economical gap that separates communities into two – the affluent and the needy. We have seen how this divide has sought the need for robust administrative models targeted to patch up the gap and facilitate a life at par. Housing being one of the basic human necessities, it appears that prevailing aids and plans have proved insufficient and inadequate from how still many people are deprived of a house to inhabit. Eventually the concept social housing Australia initiated through community housing providers like NCCHC was a welcome move in this direction.
Under the Residential Tenancies Act of 2010, social housing has been specially provisioned. Some agencies like the Hosing NSW, Aboriginal Housing Office, NSW Land and Housing Corporation and Community Housing Division of Housing NSW become the community housing provider and families eligible under the act can be housed in those properties. These families additionally benefit from the shared facilities besides denying the need for any tenancy agreements.
Role of North Coast Community Housing Company (NCCHC) has a special mention here, not just because it is a non- profit agency but also because it has been long deployed in managing social housing. The agency pay extra heeds to special needs particularly for those in lower income groups. Agency’s active participation has vastly contributed in developing a large community housing model in the North Coast region of New South Wales in Australia.
