In this video, members of housing co-ops in BC tell the Co-operative Housing Federation of British Columbia (CHF BC) why it’s so important to find a rent supplement solution for low-income co-op members when federal subsidies end.

You Hold the Key Campaign

Almost 4000 low-income households—close to 10,000 people—in British Columbia are at risk of losing their homes and out on the street when federal rent subsidies end. Seniors, disabled people, single parent families and new Canadians could face homelessness. CHF BC’s “You Hold the Key Campaign” is pressuring the provincial government to make sure this doesn’t happen.
