Indigenous Services Canada (ISC)

First Nation On-Reserve Housing Program

Program Summary

First Nations can use these funds to build and renovate houses, as well as contribute towards costs such as maintenance, insurance, debt servicing, and the planning and management of a housing portfolio. Indigenous Services does not cover the full cost of housing. First Nation communities and their residents are also expected to secure funding from other sources for their housing needs, including shelter charges and private-sector loans. The On-Reserve Housing Program is part of Indigenous Services’ Capital Facilities Maintenance Program.
