The home provides a safe, stable place to live with culturally grounded supports that help each woman thrive.<\/p>\n<p>This project was made possible through strong partnerships and shared commitment to culturally safe housing. Led by the Aboriginal Housing Society of Prince George (AHSPG), the project brought together multiple organizations, including the <a href=\"https:\/\/ahma-bc.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Aboriginal Housing Management Association (AHMA)<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/nichi.ca\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">National Indigenous Collaborative Housing Inc. (NICHI)<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/aimhi.ca\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">AiMHi \u2013 Prince George Association for Community Living<\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.communitylivingbc.ca\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Community Living BC.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Operated by AimHi, with supports funded by CLBC, the home is designed to offer not only safety and stability, but also meaningful cultural connection. A Cultural Advisor from Lheidli T\u2019enneh First Nation works alongside staff to ensure cultural safety and support connections to community. The home itself reflects this commitment through local Indigenous artwork, regalia and welcoming spaces.<\/p>\n<p>The project was shaped through early and ongoing collaboration. CLBC Indigenous Relations Advisor Frankie Abel worked with hereditary leadership and community members across Northern communities, where the need for culturally safe housing and supports was identified as a top priority for people receiving CLBC-funded supports. These relationships helped partners move quickly when a time-sensitive funding opportunity became available.<\/p>\n<p>The home officially opened in August 2025, with a small gathering that included CLBC Board members, leadership, and the Indigenous Advisory Committee. The opening featured a welcome and blessing from a Lheidli T\u2019enneh representative, marking the home as a place of care, respect and belonging.<\/p>\n<p>This project demonstrates what\u2019s possible when communities, housing providers, and organizations come together with a shared vision.
