Lu’ma Development Management is an Indigenous-led housing and community development firm.
What We Do
We provide end-to-end development management services and operational capacity development to support sustainable, culturally appropriate housing and community projects related to health, education, and economic development for Indigenous communities.
Our end-to-end development services support non-profit, Indigenous-led, and First Nation projects from early visioning through to occupancy, including project planning and feasibility, funding strategy and development, and stakeholder engagement and relationship management, which is all guided by the cultural teachings and traditions of the local Indigenous community.
Our team guides clients through regulatory navigation and approvals, provides development oversight and issue resolution, and works to integrate Indigenous ways of knowing throughout the development process. We also support a smooth transition to operation, ensuring each project is set up for long-term success.

Operational Capacity
Our Operational Capacity Development Program helps non-profit societies, Indigenous-led organizations, and First Nations build the systems needed to effectively and sustainably deliver high-quality, culturally safe housing that meets community needs and funder standards.
We partner with organizations at different stages of their projects and support clients with a range of operational capacity development needs, from newly formed societies preparing to open their first residential building to established providers scaling up or aiming to align with industry best practices.
Our Partners
We work in partnership with Indigenous communities & organizations, NGOs/Nonprofits, Cultural Institutions, Governments, and Builders, as well as Innovators who aspire to transform the housing sector—bringing diverse perspectives together to deliver meaningful, community-driven development outcomes.
