Landlords don’t have to navigate challenging tenancies alone either.

Whether you’re dealing with communication challenges, tenancy issues, barriers to maintaining housing, or simply aren’t sure where to turn, our Housing Resource Coordinator may be able to help connect you with the right supports and resources.

If you’re a landlord in Grand Falls-Windsor or the surrounding area and could use some support, make an appointment or drop-in.

More and more essential services have moved online. For some, not having reliable internet, a printer, a scanner, or confidence using technology can be a huge barrier.

If something digital is getting in the way, we’ll work through it with you. Just call to make an appointment.
