Happening Soon — Homelessness Action Week runs Oct 11–17, 2026 across New Westminster. See what’s on →
A COMMUNITY COALITION SINCE 2009
We are a coalition of organizations and community members working together to build a connected and compassionate community where everyone belongs. We share knowledge, strengthen the voices of our members, and advocate for positive change in housing, homelessness and access to the supports that help people live safe, healthy and fulfilling lives.
Our objective is to inform, engage and advocate on issues relating to homelessness and housing, on behalf of those impacted.
How We Work
Three ways we move the work forward.
Our mission is to Inform, Engage and Advocate to improve life for unhoused and at-risk people in New Westminster.

Homelessness Action Week 2026
A week of events, conversation and connection across New Westminster — the moment we most want the community to show up, learn and stand together with our partners.
Voices
“Your past was a life lesson… not a life sentence.
I spent most of my life in my own personal prison. I’ve had many people and agencies in my corner over the years. They provided a meal, a bed, counselling, help with my pardon, a chance to volunteer, a chance to find purpose through I’s on the Street — each made a difference. The Coalition brings many of these people and agencies together, and that can make a real difference in someone’s life.”

Our Coalition
Many voices, one shared goal.
Service providers, faith and community-based organizations, community members and all levels of government — collaborating to combat homelessness in New Westminster. Each link takes you to that organization.
