Join us March 21, 2013 at 12:00 noon EDT for the release of the report “Blended Financing for Impact: The Opportunity for Social Finance in Supportive Housing”

Driven by the work of the Turning the Key report commissioned by the Mental Health Commission of Canada (MHCC), a number of supportive housing providers in Canada struck a Social Finance Working Group in 2012 to explore social finance opportunities in the supportive housing sector.  The objective of the project was to provide a clear pathway for supportive housing providers to learn about and engage in alternative methods of financing for improving and developing new dedicated housing units in Canada.

“Blended Financing for Impact: The Opportunity for Social Finance in Supportive Housing” identifies and outlines a number of social finance models, identifies principles for an effective social finance strategy for the supportive housing sector, highlights challenges to further adoption of impact investing, and offers recommended actions to increase the supply of supportive housing through the use of social finance strategies.
