Housing & Shelter

MCSS Emergency Shelter

The MCSS Emergency Shelter offers safe accommodation as well as basic nutrition and hygiene facilities for those experiencing homelessness.

With support from BC Housing, our facility- comprising of 57 beds, washrooms, showers and laundry- offers more than just a roof over the head.

Our services are tailored to help people break free from the cycle of homelessness. From advocacy and support to access to essential services like treatment, employment assistance, mental health care, and more, we guide our people on their journey toward stability. People come to us from various avenues: self-treatment/recovery programs, crisis lines, extreme weather situations, and referrals.

Extreme Weather Response

MCSS Extreme Weather Response steps up to provide a safe and secure overnight accommodation during severe weather conditions. Situated on Logan Avenue, our shelter responds swiftly when extreme weather poses risks to the health and safety of those without homes. Activated as part of the community’s Extreme Weather Response plan, our shelter stands ready during life-threatening weather, freezing temperatures, heavy rain, strong winds, or significant snowfall.

Operating between October 15th and April 15th, our program provides 10 beds to individuals that seek refuge during extreme weather events. We embrace diversity and inclusivity, welcoming individuals of any ethnicity, gender, diverse abilities and are also pet-friendly.
