One of the housing crisis solutions adopted by Halifax Regional Municipality was to allow secondary and backyard suites. And for a Dartmouth-based social enterprise, there's an opportunity to help on several levels. LakeCity Works has been supporting clients living with mental illness by giving them jobs to create skills and income. And their micro-home project is still moving through the approval process to give an affordable option for housing. Lisa Barkhouse is the Director of Operations for LakeCity Works. She talks about their Urban Cabin fundraiser and the bright future for the 40-year old enterprise.
