A federally-funded program aimed at helping community organizations address homelessness amongst Indigenous peoples is now under the management of the Victoria Native Friendship Centre.
And the first application period is closing soon.
The Indigenous Reaching Home program, previously managed by the Capital Regional District, has $4 million in funding available through to the end of fiscal year 2024. Indigenous-serving organizations can apply for a portion of that funding for projects aimed at preventing or reducing homelessness.
