Coordinated Access and Assessment (CAA) - Greater Victoria

Provides a streamlined point of access to supportive housing within the capital region for adults who are homeless/at-risk of homelessness and may have mental and/or physical health needs. Also facilitates access to rent supplements and Regional Housing First Program resources. There are two streams of buildings within the CAA spectrum of supportive housing. The BC Housing and Island Health streams are tenanted differently. In all cases, individuals must submit a BCH Supportive Housing Registry application form (www.bchousing.org/housing-assistance/housing-with-support/supportive-housing) by fax or email. Island Health will select clients for direct placement into Island-Health-funded housing; these clients will be known to the health care system and have clinical needs requiring health and medical housing supports. Partnership between BC Housing, Capital Regional District (CRD), Island Health, and nonprofit housing providers.
