About the event

Yes, in my backyard: Breaking down barriers and building community.
Unpacking the housing continuum and the real barriers shaping rural living and development in the Greater Miramichi Region.

About this Event

Across the Greater Miramichi Region, communities are working together to make sure everyone has a safe, affordable place to call home. Yes, in My Backyard brings together municipal leaders, developers, service providers, and community partners for two days of collaboration, learning, and action.

This year’s forum takes an honest look at what’s holding rural housing back — from slow development processes and limited funding to the challenges of finding people and resources to get projects off the ground.

Through expert talks, hands-on discussions, and networking, participants will explore:

  • How rural development and planning can drive community growth
  • What to know about building codes and federal housing supports
  • Ways to build public support for new housing projects
  • Local strategies to reduce homelessness and strengthen housing security

The event wraps up with the Housing Innovation & Leadership Awards Luncheon, celebrating local leadership and community impact.

----

Dans toute la région du Grand Miramichi, les communautés bossent ensemble pour que tout le monde ait un endroit sûr et abordable où vivre. Oui, dans ma cour arrière rassemble des dirigeants municipaux, des promoteurs immobiliers, des prestataires de services et des partenaires communautaires pour deux jours de collaboration, d'apprentissage et d'action.

Le forum de cette année jette un regard honnête sur ce qui freine le logement rural, qu'il s'agisse de la lenteur des processus de développement, du financement limité ou des difficultés à trouver les personnes et les ressources nécessaires pour lancer les projets.

Grâce à des conférences d'experts, des discussions pratiques et du réseautage, les participants exploreront :

  • Comment le développement et la planification ruraux peuvent stimuler la croissance communautaire
  • Ce qu'il faut savoir sur les codes du bâtiment et les aides fédérales au logement
  • Les moyens de susciter le soutien du public pour les nouveaux projets de logement
  • Les stratégies locales visant à réduire le sans-abrisme et à renforcer la sécurité du logement

L'événement se termine par le le dîner des Prix d’innovation et de leadership en logement, qui célèbre le leadership local et l'impact sur la communauté.
