Homelessness NSW (HNSW), Domestic Violence NSW (DVNSW) and the Aboriginal Community Housing Industry Association (ACHIA) are working together to support services in your area successfully tender for Core and Cluster funding.

We plan to deliver a range of activities, including:

Grants up to $20,000 for organisations who require one-off financial support to effectively plan and participate in Core and Cluster procurement
Consortium workshops and resources for partnership development
Targeted local government engagement with Core and Cluster

We are kicking off this program by undertaking a series of regional consultations with service providers who are considering participating in Core and Cluster or have already submitted an EOI to inform capacity building activities and sector support.

What you can expect from us

Town hall forum with our dedicated DVNSW and HNSW Core & Cluster team
Option for an additional 1:1 consultation with our team
Information on how you can access the Core & Cluster grants
Regular newsletter directly related to this program. You can subscribe here.

What we want to hear from you:

Experience with Core and Cluster procurement so far
Concerns or questions
Gaps in knowledge and understanding
Regional based challenges
Capacity building and support needed to successfully tender

The Town Hall is a way for us to get to know your service and your needs. Each region and service is different, and we recognise this in our approach. Our discussions aim to get to know your vision and support requirements. We will identify what support you may benefit from and take these learnings to enhance capacity building activities related to Core and Cluster.

If you have any questions, comments, or feedback we would like to hear from you! Please reach out to us on the below details.

Kind Regards,

The Core and Cluster Sector Capacity and Capability Building Team
