Westbank First Nation staff provide assistance with applications for various AANDC and CMHC programs including the Residential Rehabilitation Assistance Program, Home Adaptations for Seniors Independence, WFN Member new housing construction grant, as well as the Emergency Elders Housing Repair Grant. WFN Members are not necessarily guaranteed eligibility for financial assistance programs, and CMHC and AANDC funding is determinant on availability.
