Campaign

You Hold the Key

Protect affordable homes. Renew rental assistance

Housing co-ops are one of Canada’s most successful affordable housing models. Federal rental assistance allows co-ops to provide deeply affordable homes to those that need it, while keeping the co-op building(s) in good shape and financially sustainable.

Renewing rental assistance will safeguard thousands of homes and strengthen mixed-income communities across Canada.
