Trades Centre aims to bring modular homes to Fort Good Hope

The GNWT has partnered with Ne’rahten Development Ltd. to support the K’áhsho Got’ı̨nę Trades Centre in Fort Good Hope. 

The Trades Centre has been in development since 2022. It will serve as an industrial facility where community members can build modular homes year-round. The project hopes to allow residents of Fort Good Hope and the Sahtú to receive training and employment while delivering new homes for the region. 

As part of this partnership, Housing NWT has contracted Ne’rahten Development Ltd. To develop two modular duplexes at the Trades Centre. These will be the first of 98 planned units across nine communities in the area.  

“This partnership represents a significant investment in Fort Good Hope and demonstrates our commitment to addressing housing challenges across the Sahtu region,” said Danny McNeely, MLA for Sahtu. “By combining immediate housing solutions with meaningful employment and trades training opportunities, we’re building both homes and futures for our communities.” 

The Trades Centre is in the final stages of construction and is set to open in April 2026.
