We live in co-ops

People who live in housing co-operatives are a cross-section of Canada’s population, with a few distinctive differences. Just the facts summarizes what we’ve learned about ourselves from government studies and other research.

As with Canadians generally, the average age of people who live in housing co-ops is rising. CHF Canada takes steps to encourage participation and leadership by youth in housing co-ops.
