Ontario Aboriginal Housing Services (OAHS) is pleased to launch a Request for Proposals (RFP) with the objective of allocating funding to deliver more housing units under the First Nation, Inuit, Métis Urban & Rural Housing (FIMUR) Rental Component Program. 
 
OAHS previously announced $20.4 million in funding to deliver 144 rental units under the FIMUR Housing Program.
 
As a result of this previously allocated funding for rental units, the current RFP will target proposals from Northwest and Northeast Ontario.  There will also be a slight emphasis on projects that are supportive or transitional in nature.
 
To support the above objective, OAHS is also pleased to announce coordinated Community Information Sessions to be held in 13 locations across Northern Ontario.  These sessions are made possible through partnerships and co-hosted with Ontario Native Women’s Association (ONWA), Métis Nation of Ontario (MNO), and the Ontario Federation of Indian Friendship Centres (OFIFC).
