Residential Housing Initiatives

Overcrowding is a real challenge in many remote communities, and we are no exception. When too many people share small spaces, it increases the risk of communicable diseases spreading, from colds and flu to more serious illnesses. That’s why it’s crucial to build more homes, giving our mob the space they need. By addressing overcrowding, we can improve overall health outcomes, reduce the spread of illness, and give our people a better quality of life.
