Become a Tenant Leader

With support from OCH Community Developers, nearly 80 OCH communities have tenant groups that organize events (e.g., holiday meals, Canada Day) and activities (e.g., homework clubs, games nights) and act as a link between OCH and the community.

OCH hosts District-Based Committee meetings a few times a year for Tenant Leaders to discuss important issues, and regularly recruits tenants for the Board of Directors and Committees.

Get in touch with your Community Developer via our 24/7 call center at 613-731-1182 to find out more.
