Click Here for Silvera's Response to COVID-19

 

We are a non-healthcare organization serving Calgary seniors with differing levels of income. Many of our communities have rents geared to low and moderate incomes. We follow a mixed-market, mixed-rent model in some communities. In these cases, rents are not tied to income, but remain lower than those charged by for-profit alternatives. This approach attracts people of varying ages and incomes.

Live your best life.
