Seniors Housing Information and Navigation Ease
(SHINE BC)
“The SHINE program, funded by the Ministry of Mental Health and Addictions and led by the Seniors Services Society of BC, is a province-wide initiative designed to facilitate timely access to and navigation of appropriate housing services and support for seniors.”
Housing has been a key priority for the Westside Seniors Hub throughout 2024. As a grass-roots coalition of community-based public and non-profit organizations serving seniors, the Westside Seniors Hub is actively endorsing the expansion and multi-year funding for the SHINE program.
