Description

Description:

Opened in 2023, McArthur Place is a 50-unit supportive housing development operated by NiGiNan Housing Ventures. Modelled after the success of Ambrose Place, the building provides housing and integrated supports for individuals experiencing houselessness who have higher and complex needs, including mental health challenges, addictions, chronic health conditions, and trauma-related symptoms.
The development includes a mix of bachelor and one-bedroom suites, with 15 accessible units, and provides 24/7 on-site supports including health services, housing support workers, life-skills programming, and coordinated pharmacy services. Residents also have access to cultural supports and Ceremony through regular visits from the NiGiNan Cultural Team. McArthur Place offers specialized managed alcohol and cannabis programs and is located in the mature neighbourhood of Wellington, providing access to shops, services, and community amenities.
The project was delivered using modular construction through the federal Rapid Housing Initiative (RHI), demonstrating how innovative building approaches can accelerate the delivery of supportive housing.

Transportation will be provided. Pickup location will be announced later.
