The Network for the Advancement of Black Communities (NABC) is looking to develop a Black Community Technical Housing Resource Centre (BCHC) to enhance capacity and facilitate more equitable outcomes for Black communities.

In this second phase, a Task Force will be formed to provide guidance for the establishment and launch of the BCHC. Qualified and diverse candidates are being sought to serve as Taskforce members.

The BCHC aims to assist with dismantling barriers and empowering Black-led organizations and relevant stakeholders.

Benefits

  • Commitment to the mission of supporting the housing needs of Black communities. 
  • Leadership skills and the ability to work collaboratively. 
  • Demonstrated understanding of Black culture and issues affecting racialized communities in Canada. Preference for candidates who have worked directly with Black communities.
