The Far North Safer Community Council is building safer communities to live, work and play.
VIEW OUR PROJECTSThe Far North Safer Community Council (FNSCC) has been operating in the Far North for over 24 years and started as a pilot initiative with the Crime Prevention Unit (CPU) of the Ministry of Justice. The original focus was crime prevention, but it has evolved into a wider and more holistic approach to the social and economic well-being of the community through ‘Collective Impact’.
‘Collective Impact’ is a framework to tackle deeply entrenched and complex social problems. It is an innovative and structured approach to making collaboration work across government, business, philanthropy, non-profit organisations and citizens to achieve significant and lasting social change.
FNSCC has adopted the broader vision of “Building Safer Communities” and has evolved into a hybrid Social Enterprise Service Provider.
Our main focus is to continue to tackle the increasingly complex social problems we face as a society.
Our approach calls for multiple organisations and entities from different sectors to forge an alliance creating a common agenda for shared outcomes and alignment of effort.
