The Alberta Seniors & Community Housing Association (ASCHA) is made up of member organizations that offer community and senior housing options to Albertans. The association’s core roles are advocacy and member services, aimed at ensuring housing providers have the education, best practices, and resources necessary to provide the very best housing and supports to the individuals they serve.
Collectively, ASCHA members represent more than 60,000 units of housing in 227 communities across the province, and 75 per cent of Alberta’s total seniors housing sector in Alberta.
The association has a unique mandate to champion the full continuum of community and seniors housing options, offered through the public, voluntary and private housing sectors.
The ASCHA president is the only Board position elected by the entire membership at their annual general meeting, and as such, holds a higher degree of accountability and trust given by the full body of the organization.
