The Aboriginal Housing Management Association (AHMA) has 25 years of expertise in advancing housing rights for Indigenous Peoples. We are Canada’s first Indigenous grassroots housing authority. AHMA members manage over 95% of all Indigenous housing units located off-reserve in BC. AHMA administers funds for almost 10,000 Indigenous individuals and families living in urban, rural, and northern parts of the province.
AHMA members provide a spectrum of culturally safe housing including affordable housing units, homeless shelters, transition homes, supportive housing, and assisted living facilities. Many of AHMA’s members also offer support services including homelessness prevention, parenting skills, mental health programs, and substance use support, complex care, and more. In terms of scale, AHMA members make up over one-third of Indigenous housing providers in Canada.
AHMA was created for Indigenous people, by Indigenous people. Together, we are taking back our inherent rights to self-determination and we invite you to participate.
