Building with Purpose: Christin Swim on culture, community, and creating opportunity – CHRA
Jun 11, 2026
Vena Beckford, Director of Indigenous Housing Policy and Programs
In recognition of National Indigenous History Month, we’re highlighting Indigenous housing leaders whose work is creating lasting change in communities across the country.
I recently had the opportunity to sit down with Christin Swim, General Manager of Skigin-Elnoog Housing Corporation and a member of CHRA’s Indigenous Caucus Working Group. Over nearly two decades with the organization, Christin has helped expand housing opportunities for Indigenous families while championing approaches rooted in culture, community, and belonging.
