North Shore Community Housing Action Committee (CHAC)

Affordable-Housing-on-North-Shore

Affordable, accessible housing is key to ensuring a diverse and inclusive community on the North Shore.

Our North Shore Community Housing Action Committee (CHAC) is an independent, non-partisan group of volunteers and experts who educate, undertake research and advocate to increase affordable housing options and policies in the community. We meet regularly with elected officials and their staff at all levels of government, developers, other affordable housing advocates and interested members of the public to learn about and advocate for affordable and accessible housing.
