Unlocking Canada’s hidden housing supply

Programs for any community

We provide programs to suit any size of community. Let us know what challenges your community is facing and we will develop a home sharing program to meet your needs.

What we offer

We help communities respond to immediate housing needs by implementing home
sharing programs, advocacy, and education.

Student housing

Provide students with safe and affordable off-campus housing. Help students integrate with their community, build friendships, meet mentors, and find a home away from home.

Workforce housing

Attract workforce to your community with a new supply of affordable, furnished housing with flexible rental terms. Allow workers to plant roots and help your community flourish.

Senior housing

Help seniors to age in place by meeting a housing companion. Whether it’s someone their own age or from a different generation, everyone is able to find their ideal match.

Newcomer and refugee housing

Give newcomers and refugees a warm welcome by connecting them with home-share hosts and social-purpose housing providers, fostering better integration and improved housing outcomes.

Persons with developmental disabilities

Support individuals with developmental disabilities find housing options that meet their unique needs and enable them to live independently while receiving the support they require.
