Who is Appropriate Housing Matters?

WE ARE A NON PROFIT HOUSING CATALYST. 

We are a non profit social enterprise committed to retaining and growing affordable, socially responsible and appropriate homes in our region. Founded in 1972 as a by-product of Co-op Atlantic’s social initiatives, our organization has been recognized under the names of our various brands - PJWM, APHL, APHL services, People’s Park Tower, etc. 

Since 2016, we have moved from various housing industry pieces into the region's most comprehensive and complete non profit service provider for organizations that deliver housing “at cost.” We took orphaned housing organizations and created PJWM to be the overarching company that provides provisional governance for all the various housing organizations, and re-positioned and refinanced properties to create sustainable and valuable positions in the market. We then transitioned provisional governance to community volunteers who have become instrumental in creating and directing the vision and mission of PJWM. 

Now, after 50 years of parallel existence, the various housing organizations have combined to form Appropriate Housing Matters Inc. Appropriate Housing Matters Inc. raises the standard of what is defined as “affordable” and delivers, with pride, a variety of housing options that are maintained, well run, safe, and most importantly, appropriate for the residents that call them home. 

WE DELIVER HOUSING AT COST. 

We understand the many challenges our communities face in the areas of housing. We recognize the critical importance of appropriate housing in the health of our communities. And while there are many players in the ecosystem providing their own assets and solutions, our model is unique and allows us to deliver on the promise of providing safe, appropriate and well-managed homes “at cost.”

WE ARE EXPERTS IN THE SOCIAL HOUSING SPACE. 

We deliver expertise and services while driving growth in the affordable and social housing market. We have a long standing and proven track record in the industry. We have the experience, systems, processes and most importantly, the right people to deliver on our company’s promise of providing quality products and services, and ultimately, appropriate housing for all.

WE ARE DEDICATED TO OUR COMMUNITY. 

From our volunteer leader-led-board of directors to our committed staff, Appropriate Housing Matters Inc. is made up of people who believe that our efforts matter. This is an engrained value of ours and a sentiment that leads us when building relationships with government, community partners and most importantly, with our customers. Whether ensuring that our current properties continue to feel like homes or developing approaches and plans for future ones, everyday we work to responsibly address the changing needs of housing in our communities.
