**Iqaluit, Nunavut (November 8, 2024)** - Community organizations will soon be able to access capital funding to help with the construction of transitional housing units,  shelters, homes for Elders and other supportive housing units through the newly approved Supported Housing Capital Program at Nunavut Housing Corporation (NHC). 

“We are delivering on the promise to supply more housing choices to those who need specialized support to live independently,” said The Honourable Lorne Kusugak, Minister responsible for the Nunavut Housing Corporation (NHC). “New supported housing units will be occupied by Elders, women, children, people with disabilities, those experiencing homelessness and other marginalized communities.”

The Supported Housing Capital Program offers eligible projects up to $150,000 per housing unit through a forgivable loan with a minimum ten-year term. Eligible projects can access: 

- $100,000 per Single Room Occupancy (SRO) unit or bed; and/or
- $150,000 per self-contained unit.

Community organizations can also receive financial support to prepare their supported housing project plans through the Nunalingni Piruqpaalirut Fund (NP Growth Fund) available through the Community Housing Transformation Centre (CHTC). 

“The new Supported Housing Capital Program aligns nicely to our partnership with the Community Housing Transformation Centre,” said NHC Vice President of Operations, Jimmy Main. “Community organizations can apply to the NP Growth Fund at the CHTC to prepare their supported housing project plans for funding applications to NHC and other public sector housing funders.”

NHC and its GN partners in the Supported Housing Working Group, including the GN departments of Family Services, Health and Justice, are seeking new ways to create the conditions for sustainable supported housing to be developed, operated and maintained. Interested community organizations are invited to contact NHC with their ideas at  SHCapital@nunavuthousing.ca   

The new program is part of Igluliuqatigiingniq or Nunavut 3000, an initiative that calls for Nunavummiut to work together to add 3000 new housing units to the territory by 2030. More information is available on the NHC website.

Iqaluit, Nunavut (August 21, 2024) – Today, Minister responsible for the Nunavut Housing Corporation (NHC) Lorne Kusugak announced the launch of the modernized Nunavut Homeownership Assistance Program (NHAP).

“Transitioning into homeownership is a challenge for any individual or family, but particularly for Nunavummiut, where housing options are minimal and costs are steep,” said Minister Kusugak. “By empowering residents to take an active role in building and maintaining their homes, this program aims to increase skills while increasing the number of new homes owned by Nunavummiut.”

The NHAP will provide successful applicants with a $250,000 loan, forgivable over 10 years, towards the purchase and shipping of an NHC-approved building material package. The program will also include homeownership education as well as project management and supervision throughout the construction process.

Applications will be accepted until October 18, 2024.

To download an application form or for more information, visit the [NHC website](https://www.nunavuthousing.ca/programs/homeownership) or email homeownership@nunavuthousing.ca.

Today, a team of housing sector delegates has set out to undertake community visits across the territory as part of Igluliuqatigiingniq or Nunavut 3000. The delegation will visit ten communities to meet with Local Housing Organizations and hamlets to better understand each community’s readiness for housing development in preparation for upcoming public housing builds. 

“These community visits are an important part of our government’s strategy to expand Nunavut’s housing supply by 3,000 units before 2030,” said The Honourable Lorne Kusugak, Minister responsible for the Nunavut Housing Corporation (NHC). “These visits are an invaluable opportunity to hear from those on the ground in each community and to have the conversations needed to progress our plans and increase the public housing stock efficiently”. 

The community visits will include delegates from NHC, the Department of Community and Government Services (CGS), NCC Development Ltd (NCCD) and the Land for Homes (L4H) initiative and will build on the 17 community visits that took place in the fall of 2023. 

“Community planning is an ongoing, ever-evolving process that requires collaboration between stakeholders and input from community members,” said NHC President and CEO, Eiryn Devereaux. “By visiting each community in advance of public housing builds, we’re able to learn about each hamlet’s community plans, assess the availability and readiness of land, identify access to utilidors and services and confirm the availability of necessary raw materials, like gravel.” 

The 2024 tour will take place between July 2-19, 2024, and will include the following stops:  
 

Rankin Inlet, July 2-5 

Arviat, July 5-8 

Baker Lake, July 8-10

Taloyoak, July 13-15 

Arctic Bay, July 15-17 

Pangnirtung, July 17-18 

Kinngait, July 18-19

Today the Honourable Lorne Kusugak, Minister responsible for the Nunavut Housing Corporation (NHC), announced the new Board of Directors for the Iqaluit Housing Authority (IHA).

“I am pleased to welcome the new directors to their roles and am confident in the fresh perspectives that their varied skillsets and experiences will provide toward housing program delivery in Iqaluit”, said Minister Kusugak. “I also want to thank the interim directors from NHC for their invaluable contributions at the bargaining table. These conversations played a pivotal role in facilitating progress toward the ratification of a new collective agreement”.

The recently appointed Directors are assuming the roles previously held by the interim Board of Directors established in the summer of 2023 to address the ongoing labor dispute between the Iqaluit Housing Authority and the Nunavut Employees Union (NEU). With operations stabilized and the dispute resolved, the Iqaluit Housing Authority (IHA) is now transitioning back to a conventionally appointed board structure.

As of May 1, the newly appointed IHA Board Directors includes Jodi Durdle Awa (Chairperson), Kathy Hanson (Vice Chairperson), Christa Kunuk, Nyasha Kamera, Jakub Garbarczyk, Manu Kunuk, and Sherri Robertson.

Today, the Minister responsible for the Nunavut Housing Corporation (NHC) Lorne Kusugak joined the Minister responsible for the Nunavut Arctic College (NAC) Karen Nutarak and the director of Atoskiwin Training and Employment Centre Inc. (ATEC) and Pewapun Construction Limited board member Jim Moore, to sign a partnership agreement.

The agreement initiates a pilot project in Rankin Inlet to increase the supply of affordable student housing and provide additional trades training opportunities for NAC students. 

"Pewapun’s vision of supporting and empowering local students through on-the-job training opportunities is something I am proud to work toward modelling, not just in Rankin Inlet, but throughout Nunavut,” said Minister Kusugak. “In order to build homes, we need to build local capacity. Replicating Pewapun’s training and education model will not only build capacity but will also provide encouragement to youth considering careers in the trades sector.”

The pilot project, set to begin in July 2024, aims to provide six new three-bedroom affordable housing units for student families in Rankin Inlet, slated for occupancy by summer 2025. Pewapun will supply $3 million in materials and specialized support during construction, while the units will be built by students and instructors in NAC’s skilled trades worker programs.

"Our collaboration with Pewapun Construction promises employment-based apprenticeship training for 20-40 students enrolled in our trades programs," said Minister Nutarak. "This opportunity enables students to not only acquire knowledge and skills to support their personal and professional growth, but also to actively participate in community development. This approach aligns with the goals of the Nunavut Arctic College.”

The initiative aims to serve as a blueprint for additional pilot programs moving forward. By supporting students through on-the-job training, such programs can expand Nunavut’s skilled workforce and extend housing solutions to communities throughout the territory.

"We are truly inspired by the transformative potential of our partnership with Nunavut, to create positive change,” said Jim Moore. “In the spirit of collaboration and unity, we build not just houses, but futures. Through partnerships and shared efforts, we are empowering youth, developing trades capacity, and delivering sustainable housing solutions. Together, we pave the way for a brighter tomorrow, one community at a time."

Pewapun Construction Limited is a social enterprise created in 2016 by the Nisichawayasihk Cree Nation in Manitoba as a sister company to the ATEC. Pewapun’s aim is to create sustainable livelihoods for Indigenous people by providing training, education, employment, and self-employment opportunities.

NHC is actively exploring ways to reduce barriers to home ownership through the introduction of its new and modernized suite of housing and homeownership programs. For more information about the other programs available, please visit the Nunavut Housing Corporation website.

Cambridge Bay, Nunavut (May 23, 2024) – On Thursday, May 16, the Nunavut Housing Corporation (NHC) and the Kitikmeot Inuit Association (KitIA) announced a Partnership Agreement to design and deliver a new initiative called the Nunavut Pathway to Homeownership Pilot Program (NPHO) in the Kitikmeot Region.

The Partnership Agreement brings together the expertise of NHC and KitIA with the objective of increasing homeownership in Nunavut to address the need for a more stable, long-term housing solution. The pilot program is designed to provide participants with the opportunity to save for a down payment towards the purchase of a home and to access bank financing.

“The Nunavut Pathway to Homeownership Pilot Program bridges a critical gap in the housing continuum between tenancy and homeownership,” said Lorne Kusugak, Minister responsible for the Nunavut Housing Corporation. “By partnering with KitIA to deliver financial literacy and homeownership skills training that reflects Inuit Qaujimajatuqangit principles, we can better equip prospective homeowners, and support them in their path to homeownership.”

The initial pilot cohort will consist of four Inuit families from Cambridge Bay. Each family will be provided with a leased unit in a newly constructed four-plex, will make regular monthly rent payments to NHC, and will participate in a structured financial literacy and homeownership skills training program over the span of three years. After completion of the training, eligible participants will have the option to purchase a homeownership unit and may receive a NPHO grant of up to $30,000 to be put toward their home purchase.

“KitIA recognizes the importance of homeownership for Inuit across the region and is pleased to work with NHC on the delivery of this innovative new pilot program,” said Robert Greenley, President of the Kitikmeot Inuit Association. “Supporting Inuit in pursuing their housing needs and seeking opportunities for homeownership will help to improve the wellbeing of families in our region”.

Nunavut Housing Corporation (NHC) is pleased to announce a modernized suite of housing programs in support of Igluliuqatigiingniq, the Nunavut 3000 strategic plan for “building houses together”.

Nunavut Affordable Housing Supply Incentive (NAHSI), NHC’s new flagship program targeted to housing developers and builders to increase the supply of affordable housing, will help to meet the Katujjiluta commitment to expand Nunavut’s housing continuum. Affordable housing refers to housing available on the market for rent or purchase that is at minimum 20% below market rates and therefore made more affordable for individuals and families.

To incentivize the development of affordable units for rent or sale, NAHSI provides capital in the form of 10-year forgivable loans of $150,000 for each eligible unit, including single family dwellings, residential multiplexes, condominiums, cooperatives, and modular homes. Eligible applicants include Inuit organizations, private sector housing developers and builders, municipalities, and non-profit organizations who seek to create affordable housing in Nunavut.

The NAHSI program complements NHC’s modernized suite of homeownership support programs which includes the reintroduction of the Nunavut Homeownership Assistance Program (HAP 2.0) to support Nunavummiut to build their own homes. For existing homeowners, enhanced repair programs will broaden the eligibility and provide higher funding levels. Increased assistance will also be available under the Nunavut Down Payment Assistance Program (NDAP).

“We need to expand the range of housing choices available to Nunavummiut,” said the Minister responsible for the Nunavut Housing Corporation, Lorne Kusugak. “The NAHSI program introduces a bold new approach to bridge the affordable housing gap. NAHSI provides builders and developers with financial support to accelerate the supply of affordable rental and homeownership units. The modernized suite of homeownership programs responds to what we heard from Nunavummiut. We are focused on offering programs that reach more Nunavummiut and provide increased financial support. This will help Nunavummiut to afford homeownership and maintain Nunavut’s existing housing supply. Taken together, these programs will help Nunavut achieve our goal of 3,000 new housing units by end of 2030.”

NHC is accepting applications for NAHSI now, while applications for modernized homeownership support programs will open in the coming months. Details will be available on NHC’s website, which has been redesigned to improve access to information and support documentation for Nunavummiut to apply for these programs.

“The execution of these contracts aligns with the vision of Igluliuqatigiingniq Nunavut 3000 and reflects a significant increase in the annual supply of new public housing units desperately needed across the territory,” said Eiryn Devereaux, CEO & President of Nunavut Housing Corporation. “One of the guiding principles of the partnership agreement with NCCD was to demonstrate value for money and realize significant increases to supply of new units.”

The 2024 Annual Allocation and Purchase Agreements represent year two of the 10-year partnership agreement NHC signed with NCCD to leverage investment in housing and achieve economies of scale to achieve the goals of Igluliuqatigiingniq.

In year one, NCCD commenced construction on 150 new public housing units. All material packages have arrived, and construction is underway in most communities. NCCD is on schedule for completion of all 150 units within the next 12 months.

“Our organization is committed to mobilizing Inuit-owned and Northern resources to build homes by and for Nunavummiut,” said NCCD chief executive officer and president Clarence Synard. “The Nunavut 3000 Strategy includes meaningful and effective training programs that will ensure we lead in the development of skills for Inuit who are interested in a career in trades. Specifically, we have an Inuit labour target of 30 per cent for our negotiated partnership contracts for public housing units and see this as an opportunity to increase training and capacity development for Inuit in the construction trades sector.”

The total estimated cost of the Igluliuqatigiingniq Nunavut 3000 Strategy is $2.57 billion to create up to 3,000 housing units across the territory by 2030, with a target of approximately $890 million (35 per cent) in private sector investment and approximately $1.68 billion (65 per cent) in public sector investment.

Community Housing Transformation Centre (the Centre) Montréal, Québec, signed a
Partnership Agreement to support the growth of the community housing sector as part of the Nunavut 3000 Strategic Plan – Igluliuqatigiingniq “Building houses together”.
The Partnership Agreement brings together the expertise of NHC and the Centre with the objective to build the capacity of the community housing sector in Nunavut by sharing and leveraging resources aimed at expanding, empowering, and supporting non-profit organizations.

$1,360,000. NHC and the Centre are currently working on the implementation of the NP Fund. Application intake is anticipated for July of 2023.

“The NHC is committed to supporting all aspects of the housing sector in Nunavut. Not only does the opportunity to work hand-in-hand with the NP Fund represent an exceptional opportunity to ‘think outside the box’, we see this as the first step of an open process that is expected to involve other interested parties as it evolves. The goal is to allow for the best possible alignment of the different resources and objectives as well as simplifying the funding process for Nunavut’s community housing sector,” said Eiryn Devereaux, CEO & President of Nunavut Housing Corporation.

“After numerous exchanges with our Nunavut partners, we acknowledged the serious need for capacity building and support for the community housing sector in the North. The NP Fund is an opportunity for the Centre to be part of a strategy that insists on partnerships, training, and capacity building, and that is aligned with our values and our mandate,” said Stéphan Corriveau, Executive Director of the Community Housing Transformation Centre. The Centre is a national non-profit organization founded in 2018 with expertise and experience in delivering programs that support community housing nation-wide. The Centre is motivated by the prospect of building on existing expertise, networks, and resources to drive transformation, sustainability, and growth.

• Juanie Pudluk, Vice Chair.
• Eetuk Groves.
• Jazmyne Perkins.
• Jimmy Main.
• Danio Penuliar.

The Nunavut Housing Corporation has not been involved in, or a party to, the collective bargaining to date. Given the length of time of the labour dispute and the lack of progress, more direct involvement from the NHC is required to ensure the effective delivery of the public housing program.

“I would like to express my appreciation to the outgoing board members for their dedication and service,” said Minister Kusugak. “NHC recognizes the challenges and pressures over the past months relative to the labour dispute between the Iqaluit Housing Authority and the Nunavut Employees Union, and the impact it has had on all individuals including employees, management, the Board and tenants. We are looking forward to resolving this labour dispute as soon as possible.”

The Honourable Lorne Kusugak, Minister responsible for the Nunavut Housing Corporation (NHC), announced changes to the Iqaluit Housing Authority (IHA) Board of Directors, effective today.

Nunavut Housing Corporation would like to remind tenants living in public or staff housing to be aware of the regulations in place before making any alterations to their housing unit, such as installing communications devices.

Approvals to make alterations to a housing unit are required before work begins. Alterations may include installing items such as satellite dishes on balconies, running wires through windows, drilling holes, or building a separate structure on a property.

To obtain approvals, tenants are required to complete and submit the Authorization Form, found at www.nunavuthousing.ca/publications, by mail or email to their Property Management Officer (for staff housing) or the Local Housing Organization (for public housing).

Any changes made to a housing unit without approval may be considered to be non-compliant with their lease agreement. Tenants may be required to cover any costs associated with removing items installed or repairing alterations.

The Building Alterations, Satellite Dishes and Antennas Policy provides further guidance for tenants looking to install and maintain communications devices in their housing unit to ensure it is done safely and responsibly.

To read the policy in full, please visit www.nunavuthousing.ca/publications.

Iqaluit, Nunavut (June 6, 2023) – Nunavut Housing Corporation (NHC) announces the purchase agreement with Sakku Innovative Building Solutions (SIBS) for 22 modular units to help accelerate housing construction and Inuit participation in the local supply chain. NCC Development Limited (NCCD) will complete the installation of the modular units once they arrive in the communities.

Approximately two-thirds of the units will be delivered to Arviat, Rankin Inlet, Baker Lake, Arctic Bay, Gjoa Haven, Taloyoak and Cambridge Bay. They will be used as temporary accommodations for NCCD construction workers who are building 132 new public housing units in these seven (7) communities.

Additionally, eight (8) units will be purchased for Sanirajak, Kinngait, Sanikiluaq and Pangnirtung, where the Department of Family Services (DFS) will use the units to help address critical needs such as transitional housing or housing for DFS critical staff. NHC will work closely with DFS to develop a plan for these units prior to their arrival in communities.

The modular units will remain NHC assets until they are no longer needed for temporary construction worker accommodations. NHC will then reprofile the modular units for use as either affordable rental units, transitional units (or shelters), and/or DFS targeted units.

“While NHC will continue to engage the market through standard design-build and design-bid-build delivery models, we are excited about the opportunity to purchase 22 affordable, pre-built housing units from SIBS, an Inuit-owned company, for delivery in the summer of 2023,” says Juanie Pudluk, Associate President, Nunavut Housing Corporation. “Expanding the housing supply in Nunavut’s communities as quickly as possible is a priority for NHC. These modular units meet all code requirements, including fire resistance, and are insulated for Nunavut’s environment.”

“We’re excited that SIBS will play this role as we work toward the important goals of Nunavut 3000,” said David Kakuktinniq, President and CEO of Sakku Investments Corporation. “We sincerely believe SIBS is a significant step in the right direction to help tackle the lack of housing and Inuit employment in the construction industry. After the Arviat facility opens, SIBS homes will be constructed by Inuit, for Inuit. And that is a winning formula for home-grown success and pride.”

The total turnkey cost for the fully furnished units will be in the range of $600 per square foot; however, this cost will be further reduced by the value of temporary accommodations NHC would have normally paid for the construction of the 132 public housing units. The new pilot initiative represents one of the exciting new approaches to achieving Igluliuqatigiingniq/Nunavut 3000’s ambitious goal of delivering 3000 new units across the housing continuum by 2030.

Iqaluit, Nunavut (April 28, 2023) – Nunavut Housing Corporation (NHC) and NCC Development Limited (NCCD) are pleased to announce the signing of design-build contracts for the construction of 150 new public housing units across eight (8) Nunavut communities. Construction will commence in Fall 2023. 

The design-build contracts are part of the 2023-24 Public Housing Delivery Plan under Igluliuqatigiingniq, also referred to as the Nunavut 3000 Strategy.  
The design-build negotiated construction contracts for 132 public housing units outside of Iqaluit include 20 new units in each of Arviat, Rankin Inlet, Baker Lake, Arctic Bay, Gjoa Haven, and Taloyoak, and an additional 12 units in Cambridge Bay. 

The total contract value (including design and site costs) of these 132 units is  $92.5 million – approximately $600 per square foot in construction costs. An additional 18 public housing units were also approved for Iqaluit at a total contract value of  $12.8 million.  

“The execution of these design-build contracts for 150 public housing units aligns with the vision of Nunavut 3000 and reflects a significant increase in the annual supply of new public housing units desperately needed across the territory,” said NHC CEO and President Eiryn Devereaux. “One of the guiding principles of the Partnership Agreement with NCCD was to demonstrate value for money and realize significant increases to supply of new units. The contract value reflects a significant reduction in construction costs relative to bids from the past two years, a signal that COVID-relative price escalations are beginning to soften.”  

“Our organization is committed to mobilizing Inuit-owned and Northern resources to build homes by and for Nunavummiut. The Nunavut 3000 Strategy includes meaningful and effective training programs that will ensure we lead in the development of skills for Inuit who are interested in a career in the trades. Specifically, we have an Inuit labour target of 30% for our negotiated partnership contracts for public housing units and see this as an opportunity to increase training and capacity development for Inuit in the construction trades sector,” said NCCD CEO and President Clarence Synard. “This contract will also create many opportunities for NCCD to work with local and regional companies to perform various aspects of the scope of work.” 

The total estimated cost of the Nunavut 3000 Strategy is approximately $2.57 billion to create up to 3,000 housing units across the territory by 2030, with approximately $890 million (35 per cent) targeted to be funded by private sector investment and approximately $1.68 billion (65 per cent) targeted to be funded by public sector resources.

Agreement in Principle Reached Between the Nunavut Housing Corporation and NCC Development Limited 

Iqaluit, Nunavut — Everyone in Canada deserves a safe and affordable place to call home. The COVID-19 crisis has made it clear that affordable housing is key to Canada’s recovery, including in Nunavut.

Today, the Honourable Ahmed Hussen, Minister of Housing and Diversity and Inclusion, alongside the Honourable Daniel Vandal, Minister of Northern Affairs and Member of Parliament for Saint Boniface – Saint Vital, and the Honourable Lorne Kusugak, Minister responsible for the Nunavut Housing Corporation, announced a federal investment of close to $45 million to support the construction of 101 permanent affordable housing units in Nunavut through the Projects Stream of the Rapid Housing Initiative (RHI).

This amount builds on Nunavut Housing Corporation’s contribution of $30 million, for a grand total of nearly $75 million towards seven projects.

The projects are located in Joamie Court and Tundra Ridge in Iqaluit, Hall Beach, Kimmirut, Naujaat, Kugaaruk and Pond Inlet. The housing will serve Inuit, with 50 per cent of the units dedicated to women and their children.

New investments under the Rapid Housing Initiative will create thousands of good jobs in the housing and construction sector, grow the middle class, and build back stronger communities while getting us closer to our goal of eliminating chronic homelessness in Canada.
Construction of many of the projects are already underway, with several completed and occupied.

This is one of the ways our government’s National Housing Strategy is ensuring no one is left behind.” – The Honourable Ahmed Hussen, Minister of Housing and Diversity and Inclusion

We thank our partners in the federal government and hope this funding signifies their continued commitment to improving housing for Nunavummiut.” – The Honourable Lorne Kusugak, Minister responsible for the Nunavut Housing Corporation
