Lilium Village

When MayBell is at capacity, applicants are added to the waitlist. The waitlist is accessed on a first-come, first-served basis, in coordination with the priority status considerations. Timelines of the waitlist are only an estimate, and are subject to change.

Participation in the Lilium Village Residential Program is voluntary. Applicants and residents can pause or withdraw at any point in the process. Declining services, or being declined, does not affect future eligibility.

There are twelve units available. They are located in the Heritage area neighbourhood. Homes are designed as attractive and welcoming social housing that is affordable, with the a pride-of-ownership feel. We provide:
– On site supports: 
– Case planning and community referrals (mental health, addictions, counselling, cultural and spiritual supports, etc.)
– Lilium Village Childcare (spaces available and timing of availability will vary depending on ages, number of children, etc.)

Participation in the Residential Program requires a commitment to growth, accountability, and a respect for the shared community. Generally, the goals of the program are that individuals will have safe and affordable housing embedded in the support of genuine community and will have been offered the biblical story of change in a community of humble allies.

Key outcome indicators include:
– Ownership of personal goals and engagement in the change process
– Increased self-awareness and capacity to shft unhelpful patterns
– Broadened networks of supportive and healthy relationships
– Increased participation in community and spiritual life

All residents are required to participate in the Encouragement Program
Components include:
– Faith & Finances
– Work Life
– Tenancy Training
Programs run on rotation and are accessible based on a resident’s availability, stage of progress, and interest in repeating sessions.

MayBell is committed to making its programs and services accessible to all, in line with the Accessible Saskatchewan Act and relevant human rights legislation. An Accessibility Plan guides how barriers are identified and removed, and applicants can request individual accommodations at any point in the process. Program spaces, materials, and communication methods are designed with accessibility, dignity, and inclusion in mind.

Residents and applicants of Lilium Village have the right to:
– Be treated with dignity, respect, and compassion at all times.
– Live and participate in a safe environment, free from violence, harassment, and abuse.
– Access services without discrimination based on race, religion, gender identity, sexual orientation, disability, family status, or other protected grounds.
– Make informed choices about services, including voluntary participation and the right to withdraw consent.
– Have their personal information kept private and confidential, within the limits of the law.
– Ask questions, express concerns, and use clear complaint and appeal processes without fear of retaliation.
– Receive support and advocacy, including referrals to appropriate community and legal resources when needed.

MayBell protects personal and health information in accordance with the Health Information Protection Act (HIPA), the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA), and applicable Saskatchewan privacy legislation. Information is collected only for program purposes, stored securely, and shared on a need-to-know basis with staff directly involved in providing support. Written, informed consent is required before information is shared with outside agencies, except in situations where disclosure is required by law (for example, concerns about serious risk of harm or child protection).

Lilium Village uses a trauma-informed, harm-reduction, and familyfocused approach that recognizes the impact of past experiences and prioritizes emotional, physical, and cultural safety. Staff work alongside residents as partners in change, focusing on strengths, autonomy, and supportive relationships rather than judgment. As mandated by the Child and Family Services Act, staff are required to report concerns about the safety or well-being of children, and this duty is explained to families in a clear and reassuring way so they understand how child protection and safety responsibilities are handled.

No. While our program is Christian, and our programming reflects the message of the gospel, we believe in the inherent dignity and worth of every person and welcome individuals of all backgrounds. Participation in faith-based activities is optional, and residents are never required to take part if they choose not to.
