An Inuit beneficiary card (N Number) may be required to access this program.

PAQ has 15 transition apartment studios for men and women. Tenants are provided with access to a full-time psychosocial worker. This program is reserved for individuals aged 18 and over.

Governed by a set of protocols that promote safety and harmony between residents and those around them, transition rooms offer lease contracts from three months to three years. In transition, an intervention style that is culturally adapted to First Nations, Inuit, and Métis peoples is used. Our intervention worker works closely with the residents to prevent a return to homelessness and supports members towards developing better stability in their lives on a short-term, midterm, and long-term basis.

Please note that alcohol and drugs are not permitted in this program.
