The NHT, building Jamaica one community at a time.
We remain committed to our communities through projects, citizens associations, etc. and spearhead different initiatives from time to time.
Through our Social Development Unit we provide skills training, education and employment opportunities for residents in low income and inner-city communities across Jamaica, in an effort to improve their lifestyle and help to create sustainable communities.

Our Programmes
Here are the latest development programmes being undertaken by the NHT.
CXC Examinations Assistance
The programme works to ensure that qualifying students are able to sit the approved examinations at no cost to them and to have the opportunity to meet the minimum subject requirement for admission into tertiary level institutions or advance in the world of work.
Best Schemes Competition
Our Best Schemes Competition began in 1993 and has given birth to several community- based programmes such as homework centres, programmes for the elderly and community beautification projects.
Inner City Housing Project (ICHP)
The ICHP was aimed at constructing a total of 5,000 units in degraded urban communities over a period of 4 years (2004 - 2008). The projects include both social and technical development and targets communities such as Denham Town, Bushy Park and many others.
