Purpose Statement
The NSW Federation of Housing Associations has established a network of sector directors.
The purpose of the Housing Associations Directors' Network is to enable sector directors to work together to share information, provide peer support and to develop a range of resources to meet their needs.
It is anticipated that this will break down isolation of sector directors from their peers and the sector as a whole, ensure peer information is available to directors, facilitate the spread of expertise based boards and, identify the further governance training and support needs of directors.
