Completed in March 2021, the 749 School Road Supportive Housing project in Gibsons, British Columbia, consists of a three-storey building with 40 self-contained studio units. The development was delivered in partnership with BC Housing, RainCity Housing, and the Town of Gibsons.

The facility provides 24/7 on-site support services, including outreach, wellness checks, life skills, training, and employment assistance, with additional access to health and recovery services through Vancouver Coastal Health. The project also involved community consultations and required zoning and Official Community Plan amendments prior to construction, which began in 2020 following site demolition.

To our community, employees, partners and neighbours,

K’awat’si Economic Development Corporation honours the children who never returned home, residential school Survivors, their families and every generation that carries their stories.

Reconciliation is not something we acknowledge only on certain days. As a wholly Indigenous-owned business of the Gwa’sala-’Nakwaxda’xw Nations, it is part of our everyday responsibility to listen, learn, reflect and act with purpose.
