25 ago 2009 ano - HNZC Options and Advice Service - pilot starts

Descrição:

The service provided an information session for clients, explaining the various housing options and government services that were available. After the session, if the client is interested in applying for a state house, they could make an appointment for a housing needs assessment. If they indicated that they are interested in pursuing housing in the private sector, Housing New Zealand Corporation provided information on homes that are available and assistance with the rental process. Appointments were made with a Ministry of Social Development case manager on the client’s behalf to establish what financial assistance was available to assist them into private sector rental housing.
The new service was intended to ensure that clients had information on all the housing options that were available to them (ie practical alternatives to state housing).
The new service was piloted in Whangarei, Onehunga, Panmure, Manurewa, Hamilton, Manawatu, Linwood and Timaru. An evaluation of the pilot was to determine whether it was rolled out nationally.
