In March 2023, the Government of the Northwest Territories (GNWT) announced public housing changes to support tenants in living in public housing within non-market communities, to open and operate a licensed family day home.
The pilot project will begin April 1, 2023, for a two-year period.
The Hay River Strategic Housing Plan has been developed over a multi–year process, in collaboration with the Town of Hay River and Housing NWT.
Hay River's community housing plan is designed to address the community’s unique housing needs, increase housing supply, and improve affordability for residents.
