Description
The Legislative Assembly of British Columbia
4th Session
42nd Parliament
A
Thank
you
very
much,
honorable
speaker
during
the
ongoing
housing
crisis.
We
must
take
it
upon
ourselves
to
support
those
that
need
help
the
most,
including
our
seniors,
I'm
honored,
to
speak
today
about
the
Eagle
Valley
Senior
Citizens
Housing
Society.
Now
this
shoe
swap
organization
is
very
close
to
my
heart
and
I'm
excited
to
share
with
you.
Some
of
the
amazing
work
that
they've
been
doing
within
our
community.
The
Eagle
Valley
Senior
Citizens
Housing
Society
is
a
non-profit
organization
that
offers
Housing
Services
to
seniors
and
people
living
with
disabilities.
A
Their
goal
is
to
promote
Independence
dignity
and
wellness
in
a
safe,
insecure
environment.
They
offer
three
levels
of
housing,
including
the
Haven,
the
lodge
and
the
manor,
all
within
walking
distance
of
each
other
in
beautiful,
downtown
sycamoose.
While
you
Valley
Housing
Society
works
with
stakeholders,
develop
new
seniors,
Housing
Solutions,
they
also
make
it
a
priority
to
keep
their
current
housing
units
livable
for
residents.
One
example
is
the
recent
Renovations
of
some
of
the
one-bedroom
units
at
the
Haven,
with
cable
heat
and
Water
Services,
making
it
more
comfortable
in
convenient
living
situations
for
their
senior
residents.
A
What's
particularly
heartwarming
about
this
renovation
project,
is
it
was
made
possible
by
Volunteers
Of
The
Eagle
Valley
Road
rescue
Society,
who
have
given
their
time
and
shared
their
tools
tools
to
help
with
the
renovations?
This
is
a
wonderful
example
of
community
members
coming
together
to
support
one
another.
The
Eagle
Valley
seniors
citizens,
Housing
Society,
is
an
incredibly
important
organization
within
sycamoose,
and
their
work
is
vital
to
ensuring
that
seniors
and
people
living
with
disabilities
have
the
access
to
safe
and
affordable
housing.
I
encourage
all
members
of
this
house
to
support
their
work.
