Community Development
Many groups who are not legally constituted need an umbrella group if they wish to apply for funding for a long term project or for funding or consents for a one off project. North Shore Community and Social Services Inc provides that function for a number of groups.

North Shore Community and Social Services embraces community development and endeavors to adopt community development principles in all its projects.

A common definition of community development is a model of working, within self-defined communities of interest, which assists people to:

  • Identify issues and problems they experience collectively
  • Decide upon a programme of action to address these needs in accordance with their own cultural values
  • Identify and secure the resources and skills necessary to implement the programme of action.
  • Build on existing community networks to develop better support and community ownership of services.

If you would like to develop an idea using a community development model please contact us .
