How to access our services

Come See Us

At the beginning of each week our outreach team produces a list of current available housing in the South Okanagan area. These lists are available for pick up on Mondays.

Our office offers help for any individual searching for housing on Wednesday from 1:00pm to 3:00pm.

Reach Out

If you are unable to come to our office, our outreach workers will meet with you where you are — on the street, in a shelter, or in a temporary placement.

The Brain Injury Society partners with BC Housing and other resources to support individuals who find themselves homeless.
