Скачать или смотреть Supporting Tenants: the Power of Support Programs and Services 

In this episode, host Mita speaks with BC Housing’s own Shaleen Pillay-Naidu and Amber Bell to explore how tenant support programs help make housing more than just a place to live.


By featuring voices from the Tenant Engagement team, the conversation showcases how programs like community kitchens peer-led initiatives and the Tenant Activity Grant (TAG) helps create safe, supportive environments where families and youth can thrive. These programs demonstrate that housing is more than shelter — it’s a foundation for personal growth, empowerment, and community connection. 


The episode reinforces BC Housing’s commitment to holistic, people-centered approaches that support tenant well-being, strengthen local partnerships, and build inclusive, thriving communities across B.C. It directly aligns with the organization’s broader goals of advancing equity, resilience, and social connection in the housing ecosystem.


Guests:
Shaleen Pillay-Naidu, Manager, Tenant Engagement, Housing & Health Services
Amber Bell, Tenant Engagement Worker, Housing & Health Services


The Tenant Activity Grant (TAG) is a program that provides activity grants for tenants living in BC Housing directly-managed properties.


If you are a tenant of a BC Housing building, you can apply for funding for projects, activities, workshops and parties at your housing site. You can contact your Tenant Support worker for more information and how to apply
