Tara Nelson of CTV Calgary is stepping forward to advocate for the need for affordable housing in our city
Right now, more than 4,000 people are on the waitlist for social housing in Calgary.
Our city is expensive, and women and children are the populations most likely to be affected by unstable living conditions. Women Build gives our community the chance to come together to address this need.
Tara has been a long-time support of Habitat, and has taken on the role of Women Build Ambassador, to mobilize the community to address the need for affordable housing through Women Build.
For Tara, being part of Women Build is about working together to build stronger, richer communities, where everyone has the chance to reach their full potential.
Watch her story to see what inspired her to become an ambassador.

In the spirit of reconciliation, we acknowledge that we live, work and play on the traditional territories of the Blackfoot Confederacy (Siksika, Kainai, Piikani), the Tsuut’ina, the Îyâxe Nakoda Nations, the Métis Nation (Region 3), and all people who make their homes in the Treaty 7 region of Southern Alberta.
