About Us

Providing great care in our community since 1972

Greater Vancouver Community Services Society (GVCSS) is a non-profit society that has been delivering care and services in our community since 1972. We support the independence and well-being of the elderly, people with disabilities, and others who require support to retain or regain health and autonomy. With highly-trained and qualified staff, GVCSS serves Home Care clients in Vancouver and Richmond, and our Community Services team Services department operates six Community Living homes throughout the Lower Mainland for adults with profound physical and developmental disabilities. Home Share and Outreach Support provides support to individuals with lesser developmental disabilities and care needs.

GVCSS provides Transitional Care Services through the Transitional Care Centre and The Hub at St. Paul's Hospital for individuals needing assistance locating housing upon discharge. Supported Housing provides assistance for individuals with physical health support at Honoria Conway (St. Vincent's), Noble House, and Railway House. Our services to Children & Youth include Respite Homes in Burnaby, Coquitlam & Chilliwack. All services outside of Home Support are by referral only.

We have been accredited by the Commission on Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities (CARF) since 2006. We are also WorkSafeBC COR certified.
