Ask Wellness Merritt - Housing Outreach & Crisis Funding

Our Housing Outreach Workers can provide damage deposit assistance, funding for emergency repairs, funding for security deposits, and rent subsidies. This financial support is not intended to be ongoing, but rather for situations that leave a family or individual in a position that potentially could lead to them facing homelessness, lose access to food, and/or negatively impact their health. We also work with individuals to develop life skills, such as budgeting, basic cleanliness, and communication skills with the goal of assisting to succeed in maintaining their housing.

For those who are not able to access the residential tenancy market due to mental health, substance use, or other factors, the Housing Outreach Team serves as a first point of contact for those who need supportive or transitional housing.

Not sure whether the Housing Outreach Team can help you? Message a member of the team with any of your housing related questions or call 250-315-0098 to complete a housing intake.
