Manitoba Makes Progress on Homelessness | Winnipeg News

Manitoba’s housing minister reports major strides against chronic homelessness, with 249 people exiting encampments since 2025—on track to house 700 by 2031. The province has invested in nearly 1,800 new affordable units and upgraded over 2,600 existing homes. Community partners like Ikwe and Siloam Mission are vital to this effort. A new incentive program offers up to $8,500 per rental unit plus $5,000 for affordable units, spurring construction and accelerating progress toward long-term housing goals.
