The Canadian and Yukon governments have announced a joint initiative today to offer rent support for survivors of gender-based violence in Yukon.

The federal government is investing $5.24 million in the initiative, which will be matched by Yukon, bringing the total funding to $10.49 million over the next four years.

The funding is part of the Canada Housing Benefit (CHB) program, which is expected to support over 328 households during critical periods of vulnerability.

“The federal government has invested more than $4 billion in the Canada Housing Benefit to provide direct assistance to households in need,” Yukon Parliament member Brendan Hanley said in a news release. “With this additional funding, we are partnering with the Yukon to assist those who have experienced gender-based violence, including women, children and 2SLGBTQI+ people, find a safe and affordable place to call home.”
