The Australian Neighbourhood Houses and Centres Association (ANHCA) is the national peak body for Neighbourhood Houses and Centres in Australia.

About Us

We represent over 1000 neighbourhood and community houses and centres across Australia.

ANHCA Public Fund for DGR

The ANHCA Public Fund for DGR assists eligible Houses and Centres to receive tax deductible donations from individuals and businesses and apply for project funding from philanthropic trusts and foundations.

ANHCA and the SDGs

We are dedicated to working towards the United Nations 17 Goals. Find out how here

Life is worth getting on with when you are able to come to the centre and feel safe and connect with others who are feeling just like you do.

Life is brighter if you have something to look forward to and someone to talk and laugh with.
