The Société d’habitation du Québec (SHQ) launched a campaign Monday aimed at raising awareness on the resources available to support Quebecers who have not yet found housing as July 1 approaches.

This is set to highlight SHQ programs and services, and those of its partners — a way to help with the search for housing and the financial assistance available.

The SHQ’s mission is to meet the housing needs of Quebec citizens.

Households can find resources to obtain assistance quickly by visiting the Québec.ca/RechercheLogement site.

They will also be able to know how to apply for subsidized housing and learn about the different financial assistance offered.
