Staff really got down to business last year, and the results are in the pudding. We had lots to celebrate at our first team meeting of 2024 and plenty to fill the coming months, as well. 

Here’s a peek at what we’re celebrating, what we’ve learned, and what’s coming in 2024. 

This year, NHA staff and our Board agreed that a priority for the year would be to consider resident wellness from each angle to ensure we continue to evolve and do our best to provide a safe, welcoming, and supportive home for those who make theirs with us.

Our organizational day-to-day and the earning power of our residents are weaved together. And the economic pressures that are felt by one, are felt by the other.

Our staff form a huge and vital piece of our community and we are proud of that - and them - too. So we wanted to share a bit about what THEY have to say, what they love about being here every day.

Norfolk Housing Association is unique in both our model and our approach. We’re proud to be unique, and ardent supporters of a mixed-income model; but the way in which we provide mixed-income housing (there are many ways) comes with some really unique opportunities, as well as some unique challenges.

Every year this event is a true testament to community, but something about this year felt even more so. And it was a true family affair this year, too.

If swift action is not taken now, housing affordability will continue to erode at an alarming pace in our city as we continue to lose ground on the supply and condition of non-market affordable housing at a rapid rate. This is causing severe consequences to the social wellbeing of Calgarians, who are at risk of having to spend ever increasing shares of their household income on housing and who are at greater risk of homelessness.
