About 3rd & London Transitional Housing
The transitional housing program at 3rd and London is part of the BC Government’s HEARTH (Homeless Encampment Action Response Temporary Housing Programs) initiative.
It offers temporary supportive residential units and 24/7 wraparound support to 42 individuals experiencing or at risk of homelessness. The site uses modular construction, where each unit is a private room and residents have access to shared washrooms, laundry facilities, amenity and dining areas.
Residents receive two meals each day, as well as access to a range of supports including wellness checks, healthcare and community service referrals, outreach, life-skills training, and help with their transition into supportive and independent housing, which is the ultimate goal.
We are grateful for the opportunity to expand our services in the community through the operation of this new transitional housing development. Over the coming months we will continue to work to identify additional supports and partnerships to support residents.
We are excited to work with the wider community to ensure the program has a positive impact on both residents and the neighbourhood.
