What is the shelter?
This shelter links those experiencing homelessness to a safe sheltering option during the winter weather. The Winter Shelter operates through the winter months November 1st – April 1st. Shelter users are able to access the shelter every night. Meals are also provided.
This winter shelter is made possible through funding from BC Housing.
“
The best solution to homelessness is permanent housing with supports, however, the winter shelter ensures protection from the cold, a safe and clean space to sleep, and access to much needed resources.
