The classifications of community services contained in this publication have the potential to improve the quality of Australian community service data and to contribute to policy development and planning within Australia.
National Classifications of Community Services Version 2 contains two separate classifications that provide a basis for consistent classification of community services in Australia. These two classifications may be used to classify activities and service delivery settings, or they may be used in conjunction to provide a more detailed composite description of activities and how they are delivered.
National Classifications of Community Services Version 2 and its complementary publication, the National Community Services Data Dictionary, will be of interest to program administrators, policy analysts, planners and service providers.
