People experiencing homelessness in Kelowna will soon have access to 60 new temporary homes as part of an agreement recently announced by the Province and City of Kelowna.

The Province and the City of Kelowna have signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) that formalizes their commitment to work together to better support people who are unhoused, sheltering in encampments and to help prevent encampments in the future.

More people in Kelowna, including families and seniors, as well as women and children leaving violence, will soon have more affordable homes to choose from as more than 180 new units open or are under construction.

The Province, through BC Housing, has partnered with Kelowna Gospel Mission (KGM) to lease a new site for use as a temporary shelter for people experiencing homelessness.

Forty new affordable rental homes are now available for people with low to moderate incomes in Kelowna, with the opening of a new affordable housing development.

People in need of a warm, safe place to stay during the winter months will soon have access to additional temporary shelter spaces in Kelowna, thanks to a partnership between the Province and Turning Points Collaborative Society.
