Two families moved into new Habitat for Humanity homes in Saint John, N.B., this week.

“We know that New Brunswickers urgently need access to safe, affordable and sustainable housing,” said David Hickey, minister responsible for the New Brunswick Housing Corporation, in a news release. “Without stable housing, everything else becomes much more difficult.”

According to the release, Habitat for Humanity New Brunswick provides $70,000 per unit for up to 10 new homes each year.

The New Brunswick Housing Corporation has helped build 17 new affordable homes with Habitat for Humanity since 2023.
