Power to Thrive

In times of increasing need and reducing resources, community development can be a challenge. How do we care for ourselves and each other? How do we harness community strengths to meet the challenges of today and tomorrow?

By unlocking the power in our communities and in ourselves so we all can thrive.

Join us in Melbourne in March for the 2025 Neighbourhood Houses Conference to hear from inspiring speakers, community development and wellbeing experts and our each other on how to not only survive in tough conditions but to thrive.
