A $15 million Community Infrastructure Investment Partnership (CIIP) program announced by the state government includes the flagship initiative Access Economic Hub in Logan Central.
Treasurer and Member for Woodridge Cameron Dick said the Logan project will give participants a head start on employment readiness, job training, social enterprise and business incubator services, and also link those involved to social services.
“The flagship Access Economic Hub will support up to 22 construction jobs,” said Mr Dick.
“We’re now looking to support other projects around the state, and I encourage eligible not-for-profits to apply for a share of this funding pool.”
The CIIP competitive grants program is in line with the Queensland government’s Unite and Recover Economic Recovery Plan and the Strategy for Social Infrastructure which supports place-based community-driven solutions to local issues.
Applications close on March 16.
