Non Seniors Housing
Our Foundation offers the following subsidized rental housing programs for individuals and families.
Applicants are placed on a priority waiting list based on their identified need. When a housing unit or rent supplement becomes available it is offered to the applicant in greatest need.
Family Housing
The Foundation operates government owned rental housing units for families. Rent is set at 30% of the household's adjusted income.
Rent Assistance Benefit Program
The Government of Alberta has redesigned its Rent Supplement Program to meet the needs of more Albertans, including working families and those most in need.
Starting April 1, 2021, we are now accepting applications for the “Rent Assistance Benefit”. Formerly, the Direct to Tenant Rent Supplement, this long-term benefit will continue to subsidize low income Albertans.
