Subsidized Housing<\/h3><\/div>

Subsidized housing generally refers to housing that is provided on a \u201crent-geared-to-income\u201d (RGI) basis.\u00a0Your rent in such a program will be 30% of your yearly income.\u00a0 This type of programing is targeted for households that are at a low or fixed income.\u00a0 If you are a renter in a RGI unit, your rent will be assessed yearly.\u00a0 RGI housing is provided by the Manitoba Housing Authortiy, Winnipeg Housing and Rehabilitation Corporation and various non-profit and co-operative housing providers.<\/p>\n

If you are on a low or fixed income, and you live in market rental housing, you may be able to apply for a rent supplement subsidy that will help with your monthly rental payment .<\/p>\n
