The Nunatsiavut Housing Commission offers the Affordable Rental Program within the Labrador Inuit Land Claims Area in recognition of the need of households with low and fixed incomes for flexible rental housing with fixed costs and utility supports.
The target demographics of this program are Inuit who are low and moderate-income, and especially seniors 55 and up, youth ages 18-30, families and individuals who can live independently, and/or those living with, or at risk of, homelessness, disabilities, violence ay home, and/or facing the separation of children due to an inadequate housing assessment.
The NHC is now accepting applications for the following properties:
19A Airstrip Road in Hopedale (three bedroom-building code HOP-100)
19B Airstrip Road in Hopedale (three bedroom-building code HOP-101)
23 Blake’s Waterfront Street in Rigolet (Furnished- 3 Bedroom- Building Code RIG-100)
Anyone may apply for these units; however, demand will exceed supply of available housing and an application in not a guarantee of assignment. Selection of successful applicants will follow the NHC policies and preferences will be given to those who most completely meet the target demographics of the program eligibility. In the event that you are not selected for the above units, you will be added to the NHC waitlist for future availabilities.
The application round for these units is now open, effective immediately, upon publication of this notice. Applications will be accepted for 30 days (close date of January 8, 2023, at 11:59pm). A hard copy of the application form is available at every NG and DHSD office front desk. PDF copies may be obtained by email through the Director of the NHC (contact below). Please indicate the building code listed above of the building(s) you are applying for under question 10.1 of the application.
