About Us
7 Generations Group is an Indigenous-led initiative dedicated to the development of affordable housing for Indigenous Peoples and Communities. The objective is to collaborate closely with Indigenous Peoples and Communities to support the creation of self-determined real estate opportunities.
This initiative will develop affordable housing for Indigenous Peoples in off-reserve, off-settlement, and off-communities. It is designed to support meaningful commitment to renting a housing property, with a long-term option to own it in the future.
The Vision
To build thriving, self-reliant Indigenous communities where every Indigenous person in off-reserve, off-settlement, and off-communities has access to safe, affordable, and culturally meaningful housing, supported by opportunities for economic growth, learning, and cultural connection.
