HOUSING TEAM

The CTFN Housing Team is an administrative body of the Carcross Tagish First Nation whose function is to guide and support the administration of the CTFN Housing Department in a manner that is consistent with the Carcross/Tagish First Nation Mission Statement and Tagish/Tlingit values.

It is mandated to strive to meet the housing needs of the citizens without unduly increasing the financial risk or loss to the Carcross Tagish First Nation.
