People experiencing or at risk of homelessness will have increased support to access and retain housing through the Province’s new Supported Rent Supplement Program (SRSP) which will provide rental, health, social and cultural supports.

Murray Rankin, Attorney General and Minister Responsible for Housing, has issued the following statement in recognition of Homelessness Action Week, Oct. 9-15, 2022:

British Columbians are encouraged to share their thoughts on the Province’s plans to simplify the regulatory framework for legal professionals so more people can connect to the legal supports and advice they need.  

David Eby, Attorney General, has issued the following statement in response to the Commission of Inquiry into Money Laundering in British Columbia (the Cullen Commission):

A first-of-its-kind report on homelessness will give better information to help target provincial programs and services to improve supports for people experiencing homelessness and help prevent people from becoming homeless.

New data released by BC Housing shows a record number of new homes registered in British Columbia in 2021.

British Columbia families going through separation will soon have more access to parenting supports and courses, as well as continued support for different ways to attend court appearances, as a result of updates to the rules governing family court. 

The Province is proclaiming Oct. 3-9, 2021, as Make a Will Week,  reminding British Columbians to write their will or bring an existing one up to date.
