The Elizabeth Fry Society of Greater Vancouver is a charitable organization that supports some of society’s most vulnerable populations – women, girls and children at risk, involved in or affected by the justice system. Our more than two dozen programs work to break the cycle of poverty, addiction, mental illness, homelessness and crime.
At EFry, we believe every life has value. All people are entitled to dignity and respect. And everyone has a right to belong. For over 75 years, that has been our legacy. And our promise.
Our clients range in age from newborn to senior citizens. Most live in poverty. Some are homeless. Many are without support networks or the tools necessary to build a brighter future for themselves and their families. Virtually all are either at risk of becoming involved, involved or affected by the justice system.
EFry’s programs and services help our clients address their challenges, build life skills and create positive options for the future.
Efry’s new Rosewood Apartments are operated by EFry as women centered affordable housing. There is a mix of studio, 1-bedroom, and 2 bedroom suites.
We are now accepting applications for eligible women and children.
EFry is an independent, not for profit charitable organization. Each year, we help close to 10,000 clients through our nearly two dozen programs. Our funding comes from a combination of government contracts and private sector donations. Many of our programs, such as all those under the JustKids umbrella, are made possible solely thanks to the generosity of our donors.
Will you help us bring much-needed support to Greater Vancouver’s women and their families as they struggle with issues such as poverty, addiction, mental illness or criminalization of themselves or a family member?
