Lethbridge City Council has agreed to help fund a $3.5 million project by the Streets Alive Mission for the construction of a 32-bed recovery facility at 925 – 15th Street South. 

The city’s contribution will be $596,538 or about 17 percent, and will come from the Affordable and Social Housing Capital Fund. 

The Province of Alberta will chip in one million dollars, or about 28 percent, with the remainder coming through financing and contributions to the mission. 

Streets Alive was established in 1989.
