Neighbourhood Renewal Projects
Neighbourhood Renewal is a Victorian Government program working in partnership with communities in areas with concentrations of public housing. The program aims to improve community infrastructure and create vibrant places where people want to live.
The Sustainability Fund supports sustainability projects in Department of Human Services Neighbourhood Renewal areas.
