Housing Counselling

Seniors Services Society is not a housing provider and is not able to guarantee that they will be able to find the housing required. Seniors Services Society provides information on housing options, this information is provided to them by the housing providers. For more information contact our office at 604-520-6621 or Email.

When you contact the Housing Program, trained staff will ask a series of questions designed to help in understanding your housing and services needs. All client interviews are confidential and if you are phoning on behalf of a senior we will ask if they are aware of the call to be sure that they are involved directly in decision making.

Housing Counsellors will explain how to apply for older adults housing and they will explain eligibility requirements. For example:

• Your eligibility for rent geared to income housing is usually based on your income.

• To access publicly funded residential care you will require an assessment through your health unit.

Once the Housing Counsellor clearly understands your needs, a package of information will be assembled from the Seniors Housing Directory of BC and sent to you.
