Community Housing Industry Association NSW

Community Housing Industry Association NSW (CHIA NSW) is the peak industry group for community housing in NSW. We represent our members managing over 54,000 properties – the largest community housing industry sector in Australia. CHIA NSW also has Associate members representing individuals and organisations with an interest in community housing. CHIA NSW works to build a sustainable and flourishing industry able to deliver the best outcomes for the tenants and communities it works with. We also advocate with local, state and federal governments for more social and affordable housing for people on lower incomes in NSW. CHIA NSW is affiliated to the Community Housing Industry Association (CHIA), the national peak body that represents the industry in Australia, and we work with community housing peak bodies in other jurisdictions to collectively support the industry to grow and operate effectively. ------ CHIA NSW delivers a range of resources to help providers develop their services including research reports, toolkits, guides and workshops. CHIA NSW has also developed the first social housing benchmarking service in Australia – House Keys – allowing community housing providers to see how they are performing against their peers. CHIA NSW is a Registered Training Organisation (RTO), delivering accredited training through the Centre for Training in Social Housing. We provide regular information, updates and briefings for members on the latest developments that affect the industry. We acknowledge the Gadigal People as the traditional owners of the land on which CHIA NSW is located.
