Housing Internship for Indigenous Youth (HIIY)

The FNHPA will offer Course 100 of the First Nations Housing Professionals Program to interested HIIY interns that meet the entry requirements. Tuition for 25 participants in Course 100, as well as one-year of membership with FNHPA is funded by the Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation (CMHC).

Prior to the course start date, sponsors will be provided with information on this program through a virtual call with Instructor, Roxanne Harper taking place on August 5th 2022.

Interns (and their sponsors) who have been accepted into the FNHP HIIY Intern Program Course 100 will participate in a virtual call on August 15th, 2022 to learn about and begin working on the Readiness Assignment which is due August 30th, 2022. This Readiness Assignment will be used to improve understanding of the history of housing in the sponsor’s community. This assignment will also provide writing assistance, and other valuable items to support future assignment development.

After the Readiness Assignment is completed and sent in, students can begin their online course (FNHP 100: First Nations Housing and Infrastructure) on September 6th, 2022
