Secure Communities Partnership Program

The $40 million Secure Communities Partnership Program offers funding to support safety measures to deter crime against small and family businesses and create safer and more vibrant business areas.

The program aims to protect small and family businesses from crime and economic losses, through the installation of vital safety and security infrastructure. This will create safer public commercial precincts and business strips and improve the operating environment for small and family businesses across Queensland.

The program will consist of multiple rounds with additional funding rounds to be announced over the next 2 years.

The Secure Communities Partnership Program is an initiative of the Queensland Government’s Small and Family Business First Action Statement.

Round 2

Round 2 will be launched before the end of 2025 and will be available to eligible small businesses and to local councils.

Eligible small businesses can apply directly for funding to implement crime prevention measures.

More information regarding program guidelines and timeframes will be coming shortly.
