About this Site

Community outcomes processes provide an opportunity for central government and local authorities to find ways of working together effectively to achieve common goals in New Zealand's communities. This site has been developed by The Department of Internal Affairs Interface Facilitation Team to support central and local government collaboration to achieve community outcomes by

• providing general information about community outcomes in New Zealand
• collating the current community outcomes that have been identified in the 85 local authority areas in New Zealand, and displaying these along with relevant documents, council plans, and other information
• collecting and sharing a toolkit of resources that can assist those involved in implementing community outcomes processes
• providing a directory of central government, local authority, and local organisation services, including local contact details where available.

The directory is based on the Community Help Directory, published by C R McPhail Ltd. Hard copies of this publication may be ordered from www.communityhelp.org.nz.
