What is supportive housing?

Supportive housing is inherently affordable.

Indwell’s housing model offers a continuum of support through on-site interdisciplinary teams and a variety of programs and activities. We focus on building strong relationships and fostering community among our tenants. Together with our tenants, we work to support lasting health, wellness, and belonging.

In each community tenants are offered:

  • Permanent affordable housing
  • Regular office hours, 24/7 on call support, crisis response
  • Community activities and events
  • Assistance navigating the neighbourhood and accessing medical services, grocery stores, community services, volunteer, employment, and education opportunities
  • Pet-friendly buildings
  • Scheduled unit inspections for maintenance and pest management
  • Security including controlled and secure entrances, video surveillance and recording in common areas
  • Building management including tenancy or occupancy agreements, responsive building and grounds maintenance

In some communities, enhanced supports include:

  • Daily hot meal
  • On-site nursing, addictions support, medication, and peer support

Send a note of encouragement

Now more than ever, it is important that our tenants feel connected with others, even if they cannot be physically connected. Send a note of encouragement to be shared with our tenants who are feeling isolated at this time.
