The B.C. government has committed $65 million to support the purchase and renovation of 364 units of affordable rental housing for low-to-moderate-income individuals with mental-health or substance-use issues.

Due to cooler than normal weather this year, seven winter response shelters will receive additional provincial government funding to remain open in April.

The Province is helping a non-profit society improve the affordability of their Surrey housing development by providing $75,000 per year over a 10-year period.

A partnership between the British Columbia government, S.U.C.C.E.S.S. and the City of Vancouver will create 109 units of new affordable housing for low- to moderate-income individuals, seniors and families.

Deputy Premier and Minister Responsible for Housing Rich Coleman has presented the Honour House Society with a $4,330,000 cheque on behalf of the Province to pay off its remaining mortgage.

The recent Metro Vancouver Regional Homelessness Task Force Report highlights the complexity of homelessness and reminds us that partnerships are key to addressing the issue in British Columbia.

As of Jan. 16, 2017, British Columbians looking to purchase their first home can apply to the B.C. Home Owner Mortgage and Equity Partnership program, which helps first-time homebuyers create secure and stable futures for their families through home ownership.

Seniors in Vancouver soon will have access to 137 new units of affordable rental housing.
