Since 1961, The Bloom Group has led many of our community’s most progressive social services to reduce homelessness, provide end-of-life care for individuals with mental health challenges and addictions, ensure women-led families in crisis can stay together as they rebuild their lives, and much more. Their ‘low-barrier’ services are inclusive and available to all individuals in need, regardless of their circumstances, and without conditions.
I first learned about the Bloom Group’s work when I was a judge and sponsor of the Yule Duel caroling-for-a-cause event in Downtown Vancouver (2016-2019). Follow The Bloom Group on Facebook for more info and get your tickets to 60 Years in Bloom online here.
