There's still time to renew your membership at the old 2022 prices!  Remember to check your email inboxes (or possibly your "junk folder") for your personalized invoice.

Essential Services Housing Registry Launched

An online housing registry for essential service workers is now in operation. If you are a property owner with a suite available for long-term rent, you can post it to this portal that is open only to essential service organizations who need housing for their staff, such as teachers, doctors and RCMP.

The registry was launched in November 2022, and is the first in a series of campaigns to make more workforce housing available.
