DIGNITY | EQUALITY | OPPORTUNITY Three words. One mission. At the Elizabeth Fry Society of Greater Vancouver (EFry), we believe everyone can become a contributing member of society. We help criminalized and at-risk women, girls and children achieve their potential through: • Drop-in centres & homeless shelters for women & children • Detox & supportive addictions recovery • In-prison programs • Counselling • Help accessing housing & social assistance • Job training & employment • Parenting support • JustKids suite of programs for children with incarcerated parents. Much of the help we provide is made possible thanks to donations. EFry’s gender-responsive programs work because they are designed to address the four sisters of trauma and violence – addiction, mental illness, homelessness and incarceration. We help women take control of their physical and mental health and build brighter futures for themselves and their children.
