Canadian families are facing an escalating affordable housing crisis. One in five Canadians spends more than half their income on housing costs alone.
Many families are employed and working hard to provide for their children, but are facing significant struggles, such as high rents, accessibility needs, or being forced to move multiple times each year.
Affordable home ownership is the key to building stability for working families and has a direct impact on children's health and development.
