Community Partnerships
Partners in Opportunity and Service
Calgary Housing (CH) works with community partners who contribute essential services that support wellbeing, stability, and long-term success for our residents. We know that housing is deeply connected to other areas of life, including employment, education, early childhood development, food security, health, and more. By partnering with organizations who bring expertise in these areas, we can achieve more together than any one organization can accomplish alone.
To guide this work, CH has developed a Community Partnership Strategy, which shapes our priorities, decision-making, and capacity-building efforts. A summary copy of the strategy can be viewed here.
Benefits of Partnering with Calgary Housing
Organizations that partner with CH gain meaningful opportunities to expand their reach, enhance their programs, and connect directly with communities that benefit from their services. Benefits include:
- Direct access to CH residents for programs, services, and surveys.
- Opportunities to promote services through the CH resident newsletter, resident portal, resource room posters.
- Use of onsite resource rooms for office space, workshops, outreach, and program delivery.
- Connections to like‑minded community partners for shared learning and collaboration.
- Support with grants and funding opportunities through awareness and support letters.
- A stable, supportive environment that strengthens program outcomes.
- Space to pilot new ideas and test innovative approaches that respond to real community needs.
Together, CH and our partners create coordinated, effective supports that reduce barriers and improve outcomes for Calgary residents.
