Become a Resident

Thank you for considering us! For most of our properties, we do not accept direct applications from prospective residents. Instead, we work with more than 50 referring social service agencies. These partner agencies refer prospective residents to us.

It works like this: We have nearly 2,000 apartments across 30 buildings in Calgary.

When we have a vacancy, we reach out to our agency partners to let them know that a unit is available. Then we work with the agency partner to ensure the available unit and building location are a good fit for the unique needs of the client.

We do not maintain a waiting list.

If you are interested in making your home with us, please view our partnering agencies and reach out to any that could offer you support based on your current situation.

Why do we use this process? We believe that success starts with the right home and appropriate supports. We provide stability in the form of a safe, secure, affordable home. Our partner agencies are experts on social supports. Together, we work to ensure our residents receive what they need to achieve long-term success.

Our mixed-income properties are an exception; for these properties, we advertise directly on rental websites. To inquire about our mixed-income properties, reach out to LiveWithUs@horizonhousing.ab.ca.
