Həlel̓əm Collective

The Həlel̓əm Collective is Tsawwassen First Nation’s arms-length housing authority, created to support Members through safe, stable, and culturally grounded housing. 

Our work is guided by TFN teachings, trauma-responsive practices, and a commitment to fairness, clarity, and accountability. 

What Is the Həlel̓əm Collective? 

The Collective manages TFN housing with a dedicated professional team focused solely on housing services, long-term planning, and tenant support. 

Why It Was Created 

TFN’s housing needs have grown and evolved. A dedicated housing authority allows homes to be managed consistently and transparently—while keeping TFN values at the centre. 

Housing is not just about buildings. It is about healing, belonging, and creating a strong future for Members. 

What We Do 

  • Housing management & maintenance 
  • Tenancy services and support 
  • Long-term housing planning 
  • Development of future housing options 

Member Rights & TFN Commitments 

Member rights and Treaty rights remain fully protected.
The Collective does not change who receives housing or TFN’s responsibilities to Members. 

Rent-setting approaches remain consistent with TFN’s established practices. 

Our Values 

  • Guided by TFN culture and teachings 
  • Trauma-responsive and healing-centred 
  • Accountable and transparent 
  • Focused on present and future generations 

Our Commitment 

We listen. We adapt. And we build housing that supports a thriving Tsawwassen future.
