ASK Wellness hoping NDP housing money makes it to Kamloops
KAMLOOPS — The B.C. NDP government’s first budget includes financial support for helping the province’s homeless and drug addicted individuals.
The NDP has committed $291 million for the construction of modular supportive housing units for the homeless, and $208 million for affordable rental housing.
ASK Wellness Executive Director Bob Hughes says he would like to see some of that money come to Kamloops where housing is desperately needed.
