Community Development
Our Council continued to operate self-financed “Neighbourhood Centres” in deprived communities. Since 1978, our Council received subsidies from the Social Welfare Department to launch numerous “Neighbourhood Level Community Development Projects” (NLCDPs), providing services in squatter areas, temporary housing, boat sheds and rural areas, and improving the living standards of residents.
1968 - 1973
Consultation and Counselling
The Neighbourhood Advice-Action Council (NAAC) was established in 1968 by a group of zealous people after a major social conflict in the city. Bridging the gap between the residents and the government,“Neighbourhood Centres” were set up in densely populated and deprived districts to provide consultation and counselling services to residents of all sectors.
