Status: closed (as of Wednesday 31 July 2024)
Grant amount: up to $250K in the first year, then an additional $150K each year for the next two years
The AHO was a major sponsor of the Clarence Valley Close the Gap day held (which ended up being held in Grafton) earlier this week. The event focused on Aboriginal school students and young people, with community encouraged to bring a non-Aboriginal friend to increase awareness of Closing the Gap.
The AHO welcomes the appointment of two (2) new Aboriginal Housing Office (AHO) Board members, Kim Whiteley and Yvonne Weldon AM who will join the existing Board members whose terms have been renewed.
The AHO also welcomes the appointment of existing AHO Board member, Damien Barnes, as Chair of the AHO Board.
The AHO is governed by a Board of Aboriginal members who provide advice to the Minister for Housing and Homelessness, The Hon. Rose Jackson MLC, on Aboriginal housing issues in NSW.
