Information Session: Ontario First Nation Off-Reserve Housing Centre

Save the Date

The Chiefs of Ontario (COO) Housing and Infrastructure Sector will be conducting two virtual information sessions for Ontario First Nations Leadership and technicians with support from Indigenous & Community Engagement (ICE). These sessions aim to update and gather feedback on proposed solutions to pan-indigenous approaches in off-reserve housing funding and distribution channels. The feedback will inform and guide the proposal for the development of an Ontario First Nation Off-Reserve Housing Centre as a mechanism for funding distribution for the Urban, Rural, and Northern Housing Program.

Note: This information session is in preparation for a time-sensitive resolution expected at the upcoming Fall Chiefs Assembly. A second presentation of this session will also take place as part of the dialogue sessions during the 2025 Fall Chiefs Assembly on November 7th.
