South Vancouver Neighborhood House is a non-profit that runs and operates on unceded, occupied, ancestral and traditional homelands of the xʷməθkwəy̓əm (Musqueam), Skwxwú7mesh (Squamish) and Səl̓ílwətaʔ/Selilwitulh (Tsleil-Waututh) peoples. We exist to serve the needs of our community members in the Victoria-Fraserview, Sunset and Killarney neighborhoods. We recognize and acknowledge that our community is home to a large number of new immigrants, migrant workers, seniors living alone, young families and people of colour; we strive to provide the most accessible, culturally appropriate services for all our neighbors. From childcare, seniors tai-chi groups, immigration support and food programming, we are proud to offer a range of activities for people of all ages and backgrounds. The South Vancouver Neighborhood House believes in fostering strong neighborhoods through continual support, intergenerational engagement and community care.

The labyrinth at St. Paul’s is a walking meditation space. Based on the medieval floor pattern at Chartres Cathedral in France, it features a singular path in to the centre of the space and back out again. Waking a labyrinth can be a way to quiet the mind, find balance, encourage insight and reflection.

The labyrinth is open to all people as a non-denominational, cross-cultural tool of well-being.

Regular operating hours with walking in silence or to recorded or live music.

Special events throughout the year.

The labyrinth is managed by the St. Paul's labyrinth guild.

The Stroke Recovery Association of BC (SRABC), doing business as After Stroke BC, has been providing services, education and advocacy to those affected by stroke, throughout every stage of recovery, since 1979. Our mission is to empower survivors to live fulfilling, independent lives post-stroke. We do this by providing participant-centred, barrier-free (including cost-free) stroke recovery programs in over 30 communities across BC. We provide education, resources and hope to stroke survivors, their families, friends and caregivers. We raise awareness regarding the impact of stroke, stroke recovery resources and benefits available in our province, and share information on the prevention of stroke. We also act as a resource for health care professionals and others concerned with the effect of stroke on individuals and their families.

After Stroke BC is a proud affiliate of <a href="https://afterstroke.marchofdimes.ca/">After Stroke</a>, a program of <a href="https://www.marchofdimes.ca/en-ca">March of Dimes Canada</a>.

Mission

Surrey Crime Prevention Society takes a 360° holistic approach to community safety through programs delivered by our trained and dedicated volunteers. Surrey Crime Prevention is committed to supporting community safety and public awareness while aligning with the goals of our community partners.

Vision

Surrey Crime Prevention Society is a committed partner in the enhancement of community safety in the City of Surrey.

We are a crisis centre for women and girls escaping domestic violence, sexual assault and other forms of gender-based violence. Help us protect and empower women and girls. We are the only women's Centre in Surrey, BC. We are often the first and sometimes the only place they call for help. It is because of you that women and girls have a safe place to turn. <strong>24 hours per day. 7 days per week. 365 days per year.</strong>

The Bicycle Valet is a social enterprise run by the non-profit charitable organization, Better Environmentally Sound Transportation (BEST). Our goal is to eliminate barriers to sustainable transportation, in this case by providing a safe place for people to keep their bicycles (and bicycle accessories).

This summer we're partnering with the Vancouver Police Department and Project 529 at Granville Island to try out a new project, attacking bike theft from as many different angles as possible. We'll have our valet open 7 days/week, be educating the public on best locking practices, registering bikes with Project 529, collecting data on current locking practices, as well as conducting a survey looking at transportation choices made by all people traveling to Granville Island.

<span style="font-weight: 400">HOPE exists as a platform to inspire innovative solutions to broken systems. Whether providing short-term relief, or building long-term systems, we believe that the best answers are global in concept, local in execution, and limitless in their ability to create and inspire change. We work with young people to empower their local and global communities. We are connected to 52 non-profit partners, have HOPE branches in 12 high schools and 6 universities, and involve over 3000 youth in our network annually. We believe that youth can be doing much more as humanitarians, so we create spaces and systems that facilitate this.</span>
