From neighbourhood events to sector partnerships, we’re proud to collaborate with others who share our vision of a more connected, vibrant future. Here are some of the collaborations we’re excited about – and grateful for – right now. 

Each of these collaborations is truly a reflection of what’s possible when shared values meet real action, when neighbours step up to support neighbours, and when organizations operate with the best interests of the entire community at their core. 

A thriving community isn’t just about providing housing; it’s about creating a sense of belonging, security, and shared responsibility.

At Norfolk we understand that to truly serve our residents, we must listen, learn, and act based on what we’re hearing. Resident engagement is an integral piece of how we uphold and implement our values on a day-to-day basis.  

Norfolk Housing Association is fortunate to own several commercial spaces in the heart of Kensington. The rents collected from these spaces are one of the important ways that we can maintain our ongoing operations.

And as such, we think they're worth celebrating! So this month, let's get to know Canary Goods a little bit better.

As a nonprofit dedicated to providing mixed-income housing solutions, we understand that stable, affordable housing is not just about having a roof over your head. It's about creating the foundation for good health, well-being, and the opportunity to thrive.

Though the world around has changed substantially since the proposal for what would become NHA was first submitted for community and government backing in 1977, we have remained committed to the foundational elements of who we are, why we exist, and how we honour our mission.

Affordable housing is more than just a place to live — it’s a foundation for stability, independence, and well-being. NHA works to tailor the way in which we add to our portfolio and maintain our units, to meet the specific needs of these groups.

Here are some of the ways that NHA prioritizes accessibility, fosters transparency, and maintains a diverse housing portfolio to support these – and all of our – residents. 

Having a home is essential to your health and wellbeing – I don’t think anyone is disputing that after the last few years (we aren’t anymore, right? Housing is a human right!). 

But did you know that your home offers so many more opportunities to reset, protect and actually improve your physical and mental health?
