National Housing Strategy outcomes and outputs

Research on the outputs and outcomes from the affordable housing investments of the Strategy.

The Government of Canada has made historic new investments in housing under the National Housing Strategy.

This research identifies and evaluates the outputs and outcomes of these federal investments. It also supports the on-going development and refinement of policies and programs over the coming years. It provides sector stakeholders with needed information on approaches for new construction, repairs and renewal of affordable housing projects.

Specifically, this research priority area has a focus on:

  • Analyzing trends, create baseline data on what is being built, repaired, and renewed and who is being served by National Housing Strategy investments.
  • Assessing the characteristics, affordability, and performance of National Housing Strategy funded projects, from an accessibility, energy efficiency and social inclusion perspective.
  • Documenting and assessing the health, environmental, and socio-economic outcomes for households and communities helped through National Housing Strategy investments.

The information supports new and existing National Housing Strategy initiatives.

NHS initiatives: short-term results

We’re documenting and verifying the trends, conditions, and performance of the affordable housing projects created under National Housing Strategy programs.

The research results are shared with housing sector stakeholders to foster awareness, enhance knowledge, and promote successful practices and approaches related to affordable, inclusive, and environmentally sustainable housing.

This research stream has three primary areas of focus:

  • Characterization of trends, conditions, and performance of NHS- funded projects and programs.
  • In-situ measurement and verification of completed National Housing Strategy initiative outputs (Post-Occupancy Evaluations, tenant surveys, case studies, etc.).
  • Research support for National Housing Strategy policies and programs, including minimum requirement development, program design, and assessment.

Long-term outcomes of Federal, Provincial and Territorial investments

We’re working carefully to assess the impact of housing investments on priority populations identified through the National Housing Strategy. Additionally, any work undertaken examining Indigenous housing outcomes will be developed in close collaboration with Indigenous partners.

This work enables CMHC and our partners to understand better and communicate the outcomes of various investments in affordable housing on the lives of Canadians.

This research stream seeks to:

  • Identify key outcomes of federal and provincial/territorial housing investments (including but not limited to those under the National Housing Strategy).
  • Lay the groundwork for measuring these outcomes and deploying evaluation frameworks in selected case study contexts.
  • Examine non-housing outcomes within four broad issue areas:
    • health (e.g., psychological wellbeing, physical health, health gradients; the influence of population health between various levels of income)
    • socio-economic household-level impact (e.g., educational attainment/participation, labour force participation, family stability)
    • socio-economic community-level impact (displacement/evictions, gentrification and voluntary mobility)
    • environmental impacts
