COVID-19 is challenging everyone in every sector.

PHS Community Services Society will continue our work providing housing, healthcare, harm reduction and health promotion for some of the most vulnerable and under-served people in our community throughout these challenging times.

We will work carefully. We will work with the most up to date science and health guidelines. We will lobby and collaborate to find sector-wide solutions. We will take care of each other.

Our supportive housing is operating its usual year-round service.

We have procedures in place to maximize cleanliness and physical distancing. We are limiting guest and visitor access while ensuring residents’ permanent guests and registered visitors are being admitted.

Our harm reduction, health and community services are operating around the clock to combat overdoses and provide up-to-date information to our communities in Vancouver and Victoria regarding COVID-19 safety awareness.

We will be updating pages of our website with changes to our social enterprise or programs.  Please stay tuned here for information as we receive it.
