Tender Description
The NSW Department of Family and Community Services (FACS) is seeking Expressions of Interest (EOI) from non-government organisatons with the capability to deliver the Opportunity Pathways program.
Opportunity Pathways is designed for social housing tenants and their household members, approved social housing applicants and clients receiving Rent Choice subsidies who aspire and have the capacity to, with the appropriate support, gain, retain and increase employment.

The objectives of the program are to:
* assist participants to gain, retain or increase employment, by accessing supports and practical assistance, and by participating in education, training and work opportunities
* encourage and support participants to positively exit social housing or Rent Choice subsidies to full housing independence, to reduce their reliance on governement assistance, where appropriate
Please refer to the Program Guidelines for further details.
Opportunity Pathways will run for three years and delivered across NSW in those locations where a need and service gaps are identified.
The program will be delivered by one or more providers following an EOI and Select Tender.
