Community Investment Strategy

Minister Tolley has publicly released the Community Investment Strategy today.

The strategy provides you with clarity about the priorities for funding of social services for vulnerable New Zealanders for the next three years. It also explains how the Ministry of Social Development will manage this investment in communities.

In addition, implementing this strategy will ensure purchased social services are targeted at the right people and the right communities, based on evidence of what works, so that together we can make the biggest difference for the people that need our support the most.
