Aboriginal people* are eligible for all programs offered by BC Housing, if they meet specific eligibility requirements. In addition, the programs listed below have been developed specifically for Aboriginal people.

* A disproportionate number of Aboriginal people in British Columia are homeless or in core housing need. It is for this reason that provincial housing strategy, Housing Matters BC , has identified addressing Aboriginal housing needs as one of its six key strategies.

Aboriginal Homeless Outreach	Connection to housing and necessary support services to address housing, health and cultural needs	Homeless Aboriginal people living off-reserve in Vancouver, Victoria, Surrey, Kamloops, Kelowna, Prince George, Duncan, Dawson Creek, Fort St. John
