CBB believes it is a process for enhancing the social wellbeing of individuals and organisations in the community sector and the people they serve. It includes:· resourcing community organisations and individuals to meet the needs of their clients · empowering individuals and communities· increasing people's skills · servicing and supporting those in the community sector · assisting in building community networks and participating in inter-agency meetings · undertaking needs assessment and identifying emerging requirements· improving quality of life · defining priorities · working towards social justice

The Principles underpinning this vision are:Capacity building that transforms organisations to achieve their purpose and social outcomes. It supports and strengthens individuals, families and communities to identify needs and develop solutions at a local level. This may involve advocacy, empowerment, education, awareness-raising and distribution of resources to individuals and organisations.

Capability enhancement that equips agencies and individuals to perform effectively, efficiently and develop long-term sustainability. This may involve performance and organisational structures, processes and management systems that make the best use of skilled resources, ensuring their full utilisation, retention and continued motivation.
