	Sponsor Managed Social Housing

Description	The program was established to provide adequate publicly owned rental housing accommodation for individuals and families of low income within their financial capacities.

Coverage	All housing projects are owned by Manitoba Housing, but are "sponsor-managed" by various non-profit housing organizations. Individual Project Operating/Management Agreements between the Manitoba Housing and Non-Profit Organization allows for the delivery of social housing that is based on a Rent-Geared-To-Income (RGI) scale at 30 per cent and/or the Employment and Income Assistance (EIA) rate.

Eligibility	Housing accommodations are designed for independent living. Applicants for housing subsidized under this program will be selected on the basis of being financially unable to obtain affordable, suitable and adequate housing in the private market. Applicant and tenant Program Income Limits determine client eligibility.

Manitoba Housing does not accept housing applications under this program. Each Non-Profit Housing Organization directly accepts applications for rental housing in your community.
