Province kicks in $4.7M for Brocklehurst Indigenous housing project
KAMLOOPS — The province is backing its promise for more affordable housing with $4.7 million in funding for a housing project slated for Brocklehurst.
Housing Minister Selina Robinson announced the province’s support for the 31-unit development that will be built by the Lii Michif Otipemisiwak Family and Community Services for Aboriginal youth who have aged out of care and elders.
The funding annoucement is more money — $1.5 million more — than expected by executive director Colleen Lucier.
