Managing Director, Bc Rent Bank @Vancity Community Foundation

As the Managing Director for BC Rent Bank, a project of Vancity Community Foundation with funding from the Province of BC, I am providing leadership in the development of a province-wide rent bank system. A rent bank is a housing stability and homelessness prevention resource that offers interest-free financial assistance, advice and a friendly face to help low-to-moderate income renters get through difficult times.
