Affordable Housing and Support
Access to safe and affordable housing is fundamental to fostering healthy, vibrant communities. We recognize this necessity and actively collaborates with partner agencies to address complex social issues, including housing insecurity, within the Dartmouth community.
Through such initiatives, we demonstrate our commitment to enhancing housing accessibility, thereby contributing to the overall well-being and stability of individuals and families in Dartmouth.
Affordable Housing Development Navigator Project
In 2021 and 2022, the Affordable Housing Development Navigator Project supported five non-profit agencies in Dartmouth North to advance their ideas and plans for developing new affordable housing units. This project not only facilitated the creation of housing proposals but also generated valuable resources and tools to benefit the broader community housing sector.
Farrell Benevolent Society (FBS) Redevelopment Project
In 2021, The Public Good Society of Dartmouth partnered with the Farrell Benevolent Society to support their plans to redevelop their property at 276 Windmill Road, developing a mixed-use project with community-priced housing.
Dartmouth Housing Help
In 2014, The Public Good Society of Dartmouth partnered with Welcome Housing & Support Services to address housing needs in Dartmouth, particularly in Dartmouth North. This collaboration resulted in two Housing Support Workers located in Dartmouth to assist individuals experiencing homelessness or precarious housing situations.
