As part of Homelessness Action Week 2026, we recognize the importance of working together to address homelessness in our communities. Purpose-built supportive housing provides safe homes, stability, and access to services that help people build brighter futures.

*Peter is a proud parent of *John who lives at The Stanley, a mixed-use development that includes 80 units of PHS-managed homes with supports. Peter explains how his son was unsettled for many years bouncing from place to place until he found housing at The Stanley. Today, Peter is grateful. His son now has a sense of community with friends and staff who support him.

"It was a Housing First model that created the stability and supports John desperately needed,” says Peter.

As part of Homeless Action Week, please join us in advocating for more supportive housing that is desperately needed across our communities.

💙 A heartfelt thank you to Value Village on Victoria Drive in Vancouver! 💙

We are incredibly grateful to Value Village on Victoria Drive for their generous donation of clothing to support guests staying in PHS shelters.

As we head into the colder and wetter months, we're seeing a growing number of seniors accessing our shelters and in need of warm winter coats, winter clothing, and winter boots to help them stay warm, dry, and safe. Donations like this make a meaningful difference in the lives of some of the most vulnerable members of our community.

Thank you, Value Village, for your ongoing generosity and commitment to supporting people in Vancouver's Downtown Eastside. Your kindness helps ensure that shelter guests have access to essential clothing and comfort when they need it most. ❤️

❄️ Want to help?
If you have gently used or new winter coats, warm clothing, winter boots, or other cold-weather essentials that you would like to donate, we'd love to hear from you.

Our seniors have spent a lifetime caring for their families, building communities, and contributing to society. Now, many of them need support to continue living safely and independently.

Supportive housing provides more than a place to live. It offers residents access to care services, social activities, nutritious meals, and a sense of belonging that can make all the difference in a person's quality of life.

Often people living with substance use or mental illness disorders rapidly age, so many people in their fifties are navigating mobility issues and chronic health needs that require specialized supports.

At PHS Community Services Society over 43% of the population served is now considered a senior.

As the number of older adults continues to grow, so does the need for affordable and accessible supportive housing options.

Together, we can advocate for solutions that help seniors remain connected, supported, and respected in every stage of life.

❤️ Every senior deserves a safe place to call home.

Today, PHs Community Services Society reflects on the many Indigenous people living in Vancouver's Downtown Eastside.

Indigenous people continue to be disproportionately affected by homelessness, poverty, mental illness, and substance use-related harms. As we reflect on the truths of Canada's history, we are reminded that reconciliation requires action, including addressing inequities in housing, health, and food security.

Running for food security in the DTES 🏃🍽️

This Sunday, Samir from 604 Donate & Junk will take on the Under Armour Eastside 10K to raise funds for PHS Community Services Society's Vancouver Food Program.

Every day through his work, Samir sees the realities facing people in the Downtown Eastside and understands how important community support can be.

PHS's Vancouver Food Program serves more than 3,900 nutritious meals every day to thousands of supportive housing and shelter residents who rely on ready-made nutritious meals because they do not have access to kitchens or cold storage.

"As compassionate human beings, we cannot ignore someone who is struggling," says Samir.

Help Samir and the PHS Run Team reach their $30,000 fundraising goal and ensure more people have access to healthy meals.

Donate today and support food security in our community. ❤️
