What are the aspects of successful Community Housing?

<p>Community housing programs were developed in the 1990s in Australia to provide a flexible and responsive social housing service for low-income earners. Community housing providers aimed to foster tenant participation and address the housing needs of people on a pension or benefit, who faced discrimination and prejudice in the private rental market, and who had neither the income nor the resources to access home ownership. </p> <p>There are half a dozen key factors, which underpin the success of any community housing provider (CHP). Successful community housing programs function well due to the dedicated work of experienced, skilled, supportive, and professional teams. CHPs recognise the importance of good property management, and good allocation policies and practices, which are ‘sensitive’ and seek to place applicants in areas of support and significance to them, such as near family, schools, and services.</p>
