Accessible Housing Society
Overview
The Accessible Housing Society is a non-profit organization and registered charity based in Calgary, Alberta, Canada. It was founded in 1974 with the mission of opening doors for people with limited mobility by providing accessible, affordable, and safe housing options[1][2].
Mission and Vision
The organization's mission is to enhance dignity through accessible homes that are appropriate and affordable for individuals with limited mobility. Their vision is that everyone has a home and belongs in the community[2].
Programs and Services
- Homes in Community with Care Services: Accessible Housing operates facilities such as Inclusio and Newbridge, providing care and support services. Another facility, Chinook House, also benefits from their care services[2].
- Housing with Intensive Support: The organization offers support through the Bridge to Home program, which helps clients with daily living tasks and life skills[2].
- Housing Registry: Accessible Housing maintains an up-to-date registry of accessible and affordable homes in Calgary and links residents with community resources to find suitable housing[2].
Facilities
One of the notable facilities operated by Accessible Housing is Inclusio. Inclusio is not part of Alberta Health Services and does not provide supportive living or long-term care. Instead, it offers scheduled care supports through Home Care, a service funded by Alberta Health Services[3]. The accommodation charges at Inclusio include rent-geared-to-income components plus service fees, with a minimum monthly charge set for residents[3].
History and Impact
Since its establishment in 1974, Accessible Housing has been dedicated to addressing the housing needs of individuals with severe physical disabilities, initially focusing on young people with spinal injuries. Over time, the organization has expanded its services to support a broader spectrum of individuals with limited mobility[2]. Through its programs and advocacy, Accessible Housing Society strives to create inclusive communities in Calgary by emphasizing accessibility as a fundamental right[1].

We’re proud to share that our CEO, Krista Davidson Flint, has been selected as a media contact through Informed Perspectives/ Perspective plurielles in response to Prime Minister Mark Carney’s announcement of Build Canada Homes, the new federal agency overseeing national housing programs. Krista is committed to timely, thoughtful engagement and is available for comment and interview to ensure that the voices of people living with mobility challenges are included in the national housing conversation. #AccessibleHousing #BuildCanadaHomes #HousingForAll #InformedPerspectives (fb)
Creating accessible, inclusive housing goes beyond bricks and mortar — it’s about community, compassion, and collaboration. That’s why we’re proud to partner with Norfolk Housing Association through our Bridge to Home program. Norfolk doesn’t just provide housing — they reimagine what equitable housing can look like: 🔹 A mixed-income model that reduces stigma and builds true community 🔹 A commitment to adapting units with accessibility in mind. 🔹 A focus on connection and belonging in every building they manage Their values align beautifully with ours — making dignity, accessibility, and inclusion a priority, not an afterthought. 💙 (fb)
