Supportive Housing: Stabilizing Lives in Vancouver

Lu’ma Native Housing Society is an Indigenous housing non-profit, providing affordable housing to Indigenous families and individuals. Their work in supportive housing also provides a broad range of services to people experiencing homelessness.

Danny and Melisa are two residents, rebuilding their lives through housing and supports from Lu’ma. Both have found stability and paths away from substance misuse towards employment and healing. Through culturally appropriate supports, both are able to connect with Elders, their culture and communities.

This video tells important stories. For some people, these stories might bring strong feelings or thoughts. Topics include people's experiences with homelessness and substance use.

BC Housing gratefully acknowledges that we live and work on the unceded traditional and ancestral homelands of hundreds of Indigenous Peoples and Nations across British Columbia, each with their own unique traditions, history and culture. We are committed to strong Indigenous partnerships and relationships based on principles of Reconciliation.
