Vancouver Second Mile Society-Downtown South Neighbourhood Helpers Outreach Project

Vancouver Second Mile Society’s (VSMS) mandate is to improve the quality of life for seniors and people with disabilities living in SRO (single room occupancy) hotels, rooming houses and low-income housing. We work with seniors living in the downtown south and the downtown eastside to build and strengthen their community by establishing social support systems. We focus on providing program participants with a quiet welcoming
space to be and to connect with others.
