The government will be giving $4.7-million to the South Skaha Housing Society for capital funding towards the project.
The complex will go in an empty lot beside the legion on Veterans Way.
Larson said BC housing will work with the society to get the project completed for the summer of 2018.
She also announced $3.1-million investment for 24 units of affordable rental housing in Keremeos.
