The Rural Development Network, in partnership with the Regional Advisory Board (RAB), is inviting organizations in rural and remote and Indigenous communities in Alberta to apply for funding for projects starting in April 2026.
Project activities must take place outside of the “Seven Cities” in Alberta (Edmonton, Calgary, Red Deer, Lethbridge, Grande Prairie, Medicine Hat, and Fort McMurray). This funding is specific to communities and organizations supporting folks in rural and remote areas, including First Nations, Métis Settlements, and Métis communities in Alberta. On-reserve projects are also eligible.
The maximum funding request amounts are as follows:
The Rural Development Network is the Reaching Home Community Entity for Rural and Remote Alberta, and is responsible for distributing this funding from the Government of Canada to rural and remote organizations and communities across the province to address and respond to homelessness. These communities include First Nation and Métis Settlement communities amongst others.
This project was funded in part by the Government of Canada’s Reaching Home: Canada’s Homelessness Strategy.
Our dedicated team is committed to supporting rural communities to help them thrive. Connect with us to explore how we can work with you.
