Brantford Native Housing - Affordable Housing Program
The Brantford Native Housing Program is designed to address the specific needs of Indigenous households in both urban and rural areas of Brantford and Brant County. By focusing on affordable living solutions, the program aims to provide housing that is financially accessible to Indigenous families and individuals. The program offers a range of services and supports tailored to the unique cultural and economic needs of urban Indigenous residents. This could include assistance in finding housing, looking into government subsidies to make housing more affordable, and programs that support rent assistance. Additionally, BNH’s Housing Program offers support services that go beyond housing, such as community building activities, cultural programming, and access to resources that promote one’s overall well-being.
