Vision
With homes for all, people and communities thrive
Home is the reason we exist and the reason we show up every single day. We know that you cannot build a life without a safe and affordable place to call home. Our residents come from a wide range of backgrounds and experiences. While no two stories are the same, we all share one thing in common, the desire to have a safe place to lay our heads at the end of the day. We create homes where everyone can thrive.
Purpose
We build and own affordable and well-cared-for homes — the foundation for well-being and belonging

About Forward Housing
Since 1975, we have been working to ensure every Calgarian has a safe, affordable place to call home.
Our operations are divided into to two arms;
- As a housing management body, we operate 478 senior self-contained units, across seven apartment buildings, for the Government of Alberta.
- As an affordable housing provider, we own and operate 180 units across two buildings in Bridgeland-Riverside.
Key differentiators:
- We serve a diverse mix of low income Calgarians. From families and individuals with a variety of needs, including those with mental health and mobility challenges, the working poor, seniors and those leaving homelessness and domestic violence.
- Our mixed income, mixed use approach helps reduce stigma, promotes community integration, and enhances quality of life for our residents.
- All of our buildings have a part time building maintainer, who addresses any maintenance concerns and a Tenant Service Coordinator who connects our tenants with support services and referrals as needed.
- We subscribe to the Housing First principle; an approach to ending homelessness that centers on quickly moving people experiencing homelessness into independent and permanent housing and then providing additional supports and services as needed.
