Housing First. One Person at a Time.

Homelessness in Vancouver is complex, but hope begins with a single conversation.

Helping Spirit Lodge Society, Healing Bear Outreach invites you to visit our Journey Home Program, where we walk alongside individuals and families as they map their path from homelessness to safe, stable, and permanent housing.

Visit us at:
3965 Dumfries Street, Vancouver, BC

Our Journey Home Program supports people to access and maintain housing, with a special focus on Indigenous Peoples, women, children, and those fleeing violence. We take a cultural, holistic, and Housing First approach, honouring each person’s story, strengths, and well-being.

This is not just about housing, it’s about belonging, dignity, and walking forward together.

If you or someone you know needs support, come by.
If you believe in community care, please share.

Because everyone deserves a journey home. 🧡
