The Structure of NNIC

Organisation Details

Nimbin Neighbourhood and Information Centre(NNIC) is a non-profit community-based organisation, incorporated under the NSW Incorporated Associations Act and registered with the ACNC.

We are registered as a Public Benevolent Institution and a Charity with Income Tax Exempt and Deductible Gift Recipient status.(Donations over $2 are tax deductible).

We are managed by a volunteer community based management committee that is elected by NNIC members each year at the Annual General Meeting. The committee meets every month and communicates via email on a regular basis. Any interested community member can apply to become a member of the committee. Click here to see our FAQs info sheet for people considering joining our Managament Committee.

if you are a younger person (ie under 35 years) and have little or no experience in management committees, WE STILL WANT YOU!! We are willing to mentor and support you in a management committee role.

To apply please complete the EOI form via this link.

Underpinning all of our work is a strengths-based approach and the belief that community pride and cohesion is the key to a functioning community and reducing crime, disadvantage, isolation and unemployment (and demand upon our services). We have seen that people working together and sharing resources can lead to significant activity including economic benefits.

WORKING COLLABORATIVELY

NNIC works in partnership with many other organisations in relation to various services and projects. Some of our most significant relationships are shown on this chart.

Currently our most most significant partnerships are with the Buttery (Nimbin AOD Hub) and the CONC (Consortium of Neighbourhood Centres Far North Coast) (multiple programs and projects).
