The interventions of the Plateau State Community and Social Development Agency, PLCSDA, are 100% 'demand-driven.' And the entry point is the 'Expression of Interest' raised by intending to benefit the community and Vulnerable groups.
Over the years the Agency has continued to remain focused while at the same time addressing emerging issues, particularly security challenges that often times displaced communities, making those affected lose their livelihoods and housing.
The intervention of Plateau State Community and Social Development in communities that have witnessed security challenges through community housing is a deliberate intervention supported by the Plateau State Government and Partners that 'no one is left behind.'
Community housing refers to housing provided primarily to meet the needs of people who may not be able to afford adequate housing through the private market.
Focuses on providing affordable, safe, and secure housing.
May target low-income families, older persons, people with disabilities, or vulnerable groups.
This can consist of single houses, apartments, or group housing developments.
The advantages of Community housing include improved access to affordable housing, reduced homelessness, strengthened social inclusion and community cohesion, and long-term housing stability and support for vulnerable populations.
PLCSDA is currently supporting vulnerable groups through Community Housing in some communities with a view to enabling them to return to their ancestral homes with ease.
General Manager, PLCSDA, Dauda Dinju, in the company of some management and staff, embarked on spot monitoring to ensure that these interventions are up to standard.
