Aims and Objectives of Native People of Thunder Bay Development Corp.

To promote the economic and social welfare of persons of Indigenous Ancestry;
To establish, maintain and operate low-income housing;
To inform the public of the continuing need for low-income housing.

Urban Native Housing Program

Persons of Aboriginal Ancestry routinely face discrimination when searching for rental accommodations in urban centers and many of them end up living in substandard, unsafe dwellings. In response to this discrimination and in acknowledgment of its historic commitment to the Indigenous Peoples of Canada, the Federal Government created the Native component of Section 56.1 and 95 of the National Housing Act (the Urban Native Housing Program), allowing Native non-profit Corporations to purchase and construct housing units to provide safe, affordable and decent housing to persons of Aboriginal ancestry.
