About 85 percent of individuals who are homeless have challenges with mental illness.

In partnership with the Sanford Housing Society, the MPA Society, the Province of BC and the City of Vancouver, Streetohome committed a portion of $20 million to develop this 62 unit project at 7th & Fir, as part of its overall commitment to building eight city sites.

Sanford Apartments provide affordable bachelor units. Half of the tenants receive enhanced services including medication support. All tenants can access a meal program. Supports are directed towards
increased self-autonomy, life skills development, and empowerment. Inhouse supports are complemented by community resources.
