Develop a Comprehensive Seniors Housing Strategy

Sky-high rents and housing prices mean that many Nova Scotians can’t afford to move to housing that is right-sized for their lives.

We will work with seniors to develop specific housing plans to meet their needs. We’ll develop options like small walkable communities with homes for seniors or apartment buildings with specific wellness supports, and work to make sure seniors’ needs are being met in the housing market.

We know that many seniors want to stay in their homes because it’s where they’re most comfortable. To support them, we will invest $5M in programs to adapt existing housing to meet seniors’ needs as they age.

Cost estimate: Total Cost: $5M over 4 years
