WE’RE BRINGING OUR REFLECT RECONCILIATION ACTION PLAN TO LIFE

Congratulations to the 2021 Community Impact (CI) Award winners. This year a record number of award winners were recognised including a special commendation prize, which were announced at the online resident forum on Saturday 13 November.

We are thrilled to announce that City West Housing (CWH) will be providing up to 20 affordable apartments for women who are fleeing domestic violence or are at risk of homelessness.

City West Housing CEO Leonie King is thrilled to be launching the organisation’s first Reflect Reconciliation Action Plan.

Maddison Gibbs is a proud Barkindji woman who is a multidisciplinary contemporary artist. The City West Housing resident’s artwork plays a starring role in the organisation’s first Reflect Reconciliation Action Plan (RAP).

If you notice any anti-social/illegal activity in a CWH building, Crime Prevention Officer, Rebecca, advises to make sure to not get involved and call the police.

City West Housing would like to acknowledge and thank the CWH Tenants Voice members who have contributed in excess of 500 hours of their own time over the past three years towards creating a pathway for resident's voices to be heard. Thank you for all your positive contributions and welcome to the new members of the team.

The Chair of the Board of City West Housing Pty Ltd Diana D’Ambra is delighted to announce the appointment of two new Directors to the Board, John Carfi and Wayne Stokes.
