The first round of the PEI Community Housing Expansion Project (CHEP) has officially concluded. CHF Canada successfully met all project deliverables including the creation of a land co-op (Island Unity Land Co-operative). This work was carried out in partnership with Kings Square Non-Profit Housing Corporation and the Canadian Mental Health Association – PEI Division.
In support of the CHEP program the Board approved adopted a growth strategy created through facilitation with LIFT Impact Partners and the Community Housing Transformation Centre (The Centre). The growth strategy outlines five strategic pillars to guide the co-op’s future direction.
With the Board’s approval, a new proposal has now been submitted to the Province of PEI for a second round of funding under the CHEP program this time with Island Unity as the lead proponent. This marks an exciting step forward in our development journey and reflects growing confidence in our capacity to lead future housing initiatives.
