Welcome to Treaty 7 Urban Indian Housing Authority

Treaty 7 Urban Indian Housing is an Indigenous operated,  non-profit organization which provides subsidized rental units for low to moderate income native families seeking accommodations in the urban areas. Treaty 7 UIHA has supported hundreds of families over the years by providing affordable, comfortable housing in the Urban centers of Lethbridge, Calgary and Cardston. The success of T7UIHA can be attributed to a large number of committed community members who have volunteered their time and skills towards the goals of T7UIHA. 


Developments consist of self-contained units ranging in size from two to four bedroom units. Accommodations are available in Lethbridge , Cardston, and Calgary and in various styles such as townhouses, duplexes, and single family dwellings. Applicants are approved for a specific size of unit based on the family composition of the household.
