DIGNITY | EQUALITY | OPPORTUNITY
Three words. One mission. At the Elizabeth Fry Society of Greater Vancouver (EFry), we believe everyone can become a contributing member of society.
We help criminalized and at-risk women, girls and children achieve their potential through:
• Drop-in centres & homeless shelters for women & children
• Detox & supportive addictions recovery
• In-prison programs
• Counselling
• Help accessing housing & social assistance
• Job training & employment
• Parenting support
• JustKids suite of programs for children with incarcerated parents.
Much of the help we provide is made possible thanks to donations. EFry’s gender-responsive programs work because they are designed to address the four sisters of trauma and violence – addiction, mental illness, homelessness and incarceration. We help women take control of their physical and mental health
and build brighter futures for themselves and their children.
