Programs Overview:
Our Nation Student Housing is developing a structured housing model designed to support Indigenous post-secondary students relocating to Calgary. Our approach integrates housing stability with coordinated supports and community connection.
Housing Model (Planned):
Shared accommodation units in Calgary
Affordable rent aligned with student funding levels
Defined occupancy agreements and community standards
Structured intake and screening process
Length of stay aligned with academic terms
Wraparound Supports:
ONSH operates as a housing-based coordination model. We connect residents to existing services rather than duplicating them.
Support areas include:
Academic referrals and tutoring connections
Financial literacy and budgeting support
Cultural mentorship and community engagement
Life skills and transition support
Peer connection and shared accountability
Scope of Services:
ONSH is not a treatment facility and does not provide clinical or crisis services. Residents requiring specialized services will be referred to appropriate community providers.
ONSH is currently in a development and partnership-building phase. Expressions of Interest and partner engagement support capacity planning and initial housing implementation.
