Secure Communities Partnership Program

The Secure Communities Partnership Program funds safety measures to deter crime against small and family businesses and create safer and more vibrant business areas.

Round two of the program is available to small businesses and Queensland councils to deliver local projects that create safer public commercial precincts and business strips, creating a more confident and secure Queensland small business community.

The Department of Customer Services, Open Data and Small and Family Business (CDSB) is leading the program with support from Department of Local Government, Water and Volunteers (DLGWV) to administer directly to local governments.

Funding of up to $40 million is available under the SCPPLC grant. For round two, up to $8 million in grant funding is available to eligible local councils.
