@HomeSpaceyyc This is a great breakdown! Thanks for sharing.

Not everyone who follows us knows how HomeSpace works, so let us tell you about our housing model! We build and operate affordable housing at 20-40% below market rent. We usually rent these units to one of our partner agencies who provide specialized services to people in need.

"Social work is a unique profession that approaches situations from a truly holistic lens looking at all contributing factors within a person’s environment. It is also deeply committed to social justice and not simply upholding the status quo." - Mabel | Lead Clinician

We had a BLAST last night at the @telus_spark Indigenous Science night! 💥 Our Wicihitowin Youth Circle Group, along with some staff and their families attended and met the co-creators of the Sacred Defenders of the Universe.

"Homelessness impacts us all. Each Calgarian deserves a safe and secure space to call home. If we have the resources/support to do this, let's do our best to support our community and achieve housing for all."⁠ To read more, visit mcmancalgary.ca/social-work-mo…
