Neighbourhood Houses Framework

Our Neighbourhood Houses Framework explains how we will work together with neighbourhood houses to deliver on strategies of the Boroondara Community Plan. These strategies are from Theme 1: Community, Services and Facilities, and they will make sure that community services and facilities are high quality, sustainable, inclusive and strengthen resilience. You can find out more on our Boroondara Community Plan 2021-2031 page.

We developed this framework in consultation with the neighbourhood houses of Boroondara. It formalises the important role that neighbourhood houses play in delivering programs and services that support our community’s health and wellbeing and the support Council provides.
