It’s #PreventionOfViolenceAgainstWomen Week and drastic changes are needed. Everyone, including sex workers, has the right to safety. This week also offers the invitation to share our stories with—and seek support from—people we trust, because silence doesn’t protect anybody.
EWMA is proud to be Vancouver Fashion Week’s charitable partner for the last 10 years. We are grateful to collaborate with all the wonderful VFW volunteers, talented models, and hair and make-up teams. Thank you VFW and Bully Blocker for making each season memorable.
During Prevention of Violence Against Women Week, we stand with all women, especially Indigenous and trans women facing higher rates of violence. Our services offer empowerment and healing. Consider supporting us: atira.bc.ca/ways-to-help/d…

In 2022, we supported 3026 women through Atira's Homelessness Prevention Program. Our engagement strategy was key. We understood each woman's needs and guided them to financial help or support services. We assisted with paperwork, appointments and more.
Happy Eid-ul-Fitr! As we bid farewell to Ramadan, may the spirit of Eid fill your hearts with happiness and your home with laughter. Wishing you all a joyous occasion and may this special day bring you closer to friends and family.
Koomseh, an Atira 2nd stage housing program, provides 11 units of supportive housing to women & children affected by violence. Offering secure, affordable units for 6-18 months, Atira staff offer emotional support, referrals, & aid in transitioning to low-income housing.
Shimai offers 10 transitional housing units, focusing on women's needs in a safe, non-judgmental environment. Many have built strong connections with staff over the years. Supports include crisis help, harm reduction supplies, meals, laundry, and more. Our doors are always open.
On World Autism Day, let's celebrate the unique talents and perspectives of individuals with autism. It's crucial to prioritize inclusion and create environments where neurodiversity is celebrated. Check out this resource guide from @autismbc autismbc.ca/blog/resource-…
Wishing everyone a Happy Easter filled with love, joy, and the promise of new beginnings! Let's embrace the spirit of hope as we gather together. Need a sweet treat to celebrate? Check out East Van Roasters, our social enterprise that makes delicious bean-to-bar chocolates.
Maxxine Wright Shelter offers resources and informal groups on vital topics like infant development and parenting. The Transition House Program provides 24 units of affordable transitional housing for early-parenting women, including pregnant women and children under two.
Durrant, an Atira Surrey program, offers 10 units of specialized transitional housing for women overcoming substance use with children. 8 beds nurture recovery, while 2, supported by Correctional Services Canada, aid those that have been criminalized.
Ama Transition House offers transitional housing for women aged 55+ affected by violence. Older women are often overlooked, yet 22% of Greater Vancouver's homeless are 55+. Atira is dedicated to supporting them, providing a safe space & resources for rebuilding.
Little's Too has 44 units of housing for women impacted by violence. Formerly a sex trafficking motel, it is now a safe space on King George Blvd to help women rebuild their lives. It is named after 'Little', a woman who lost her life to an opioid overdose in 2016.
