    613-933-6282, Ext 3108

    The Social Housing Division delivers programs and services to residents of both the City of Cornwall and the United Counties of SDG. Social Housing helps people who are in need.

     

    Social Housing refers to rental housing developed with the assistance of government and subsidized by government for people with low to moderate incomes, seniors, or people with special needs who can live, with supports, in the community.

     

    Subsidies are based on the tenants’ ability to pay, with rents calculated at approximately 30% of gross monthly household income up to market rent. This is known as Rent Geared To Income. Other eligibility criteria must also be met.

     

    Through the Housing Access Centre, the Division also administers Social Housing Centralized Waitlist for geared-to-income housing for low income individuals, families and seniors. Individuals must complete an application and meet all eligibility criteria to be on the waitlist. If you are eligible, you will be placed on the waitlist.  Most people need to find their own rental housing in the private market while they are on the wait list as it can be a long wait.

     

    If you wish to apply to be on the waitlist, applications can be picked up at 340 Pitt St – 3rd Floor or you can call 613-937-7512, option # 4.Once you have completed your application, please contact 613-933-6282, ext. 3108 to schedule an appointment to review your application.
