The Community Housing Transformation Centre (The Centre) is a network of organizations that represent and serve the needs of Canada’s community housing sector. The centre provides access to tools, financial resources and best practices to support the growth, transformation and resilience of community housing.

Mission Statement: The Centre’s mission is to support the long-term evolution of community housing providers by dispensing funds, support and help to increase organizational capacity.

The Centre is a third party network delivering this National Housing Strategy initiative.

Overview

To drive transformation, growth, resilience, sustainability and inclusiveness in the community housing sector, the Centre offers support in two forms:

  1. Technical assistance and tools to increase the capacity of community housing providers by leveraging the centre’s existing expertise, networks and resources.
  2. Funding grants to support community housing providers and community organizations who are exploring new and more efficient business models, or raising awareness and supporting the implementation of new and improved tenant engagement practices.

The goals of the centre will be to:

  • Help community housing providers find new solutions to their challenges.
  • Identify gaps and collaborate on solutions.
  • Find promising transformative practices to study and scale up.
