Deputy Premier and Infrastructure Minister Steven Miles said the Community Infrastructure Investment Partnership (CIIP) competitive grants program would prioritise projects supporting critical social and job-readiness services. “We’re inviting not-for-profit organisations across the state to apply for funding to help Queensland’s economic recovery,” he said. “Around $8 million is being made available to enable expansions, upgrades or rebuilds of existing facilities in high-need communities. “Neighbourhood and community centres which provide localised access to child, family and community services are encouraged to apply. “Priority will be given to co-funded construction-ready projects that can be completed by June 2022. “The program is open to not-for-profits that own land or assets or are delivering social services from council-owned facilities.
