Who We Are

Mission Statement

BC Society of Transition Houses (BCSTH) is a centre of excellence enhancing the continuum of services and strategies necessary to end violence against women, youth and children.

BCSTH is a non-profit association of Transition, Second and Third Stage Houses, Safe Homes, Children Who Witness Abuse Programs and other groups which serve the needs of women and their children fleeing violence. We also link schools with the CWWA program through our Violence Is Preventable project (VIP).

We subscribe to a Women’s Centred Framework.
