End of Operating Agreement Resources
Webinar on Block Funding with Manitoba Housing
Since a proposed new funding model for social housing was announced, MNPHA initiated a webinar with Manitoba Housing so those with expiring/expired operating agreements get the information they need. At this time, the intent is to share information about the proposed model and determine the level of interest on the part of non-profit housing providers to enter into a new funding agreement on this basis.
Manitoba Housing is establishing a block funding model designed to provide predictable and flexible funding to the non-profit sector. The funding is available to housing projects who have already come off their original agreements, with a priority for those with agreements expiring this year and 100% RGI units. Up to $1.4 million has been allocated toward these new agreements in 2023/24, and depending on uptake, will make additional funding available in future years.
