Count on Adsum to continue to advocate for housing systems rooted in dignity, equity, and community care. We’re grateful to the Centre for Urban Youth Research for leading the way.

We are thrilled to purchase another condo that we’ll be renting to a family experiencing homelessness in HRM. Housing units like this are desperately needed throughout Nova Scotia, especially when they are truly affordable. We are committed at Adsum; we keep growing our stock. We ensure that rents remain affordable and supports to tenants are appropriate and linked to their needs.
