2009/10 Community Development Grants Program

Overview

The Community Relations Commission provides funding assistance to organisations through its Community Development Grants Program.  The program has been developed to support the objectives of the Commission as set out in the Community Relations Commission and Principles of Multiculturalism Act 2000.

The Commission is pleased to advise the introduction of a new direction in grant applications with the creation of three grant categories in order to focus particularly on new and emerging communities.  This will enable the Commission to better support the work of not-for-profit incorporated community organisations and to work in partnership with local government councils to address the needs of newly-arrived and emerging communities.

There are three categories of funding under the 2009/10 Community Development Grants Program:

• General grants
• Sponsorship grants
• Local partnership grants
  

• Priority areas for funding
  
• Eligibility
• Restrictions

Applications under the 2009/10 Community Development Grants Program have closed and the outcome will be announced in mid-2010.
