With the recent rising cost of food and prescriptions and with incomes that aren’t keeping up with inflation, some residents of Ward Street Place are finding it difficult to make ends meet. The Ward Basics Fund will provide modest financial support to residents who need a helping hand. Thank you for you generous support!

NELSON CARES SOCIETY AIMS TO BE A REFLECTION OF THE COMMUNITY IT ENVISIONS.

Through community collaboration and service excellence, Nelson CARES Society works toward a socially just society by providing programs and initiatives in advocacy, housing, employment, support services, and environmental stewardship.

Nelson CARES Society acknowledges our respect for, and deep gratitude to, all the ancestors and keepers of the land on whose traditional territories we are honoured to live and work.

Nelson CARES Society is  accredited by CARF International and reviewed every three years.

This accreditation designation represents the highest level of accreditation that can be awarded to an organization and shows the organization’s substantial conformance to the CARF standards. An organization receiving a Three-Year Accreditation has put itself through a rigorous peer review process. It has demonstrated to a team of surveyors during an on-site visit its commitment to offering programs and services that are measurable, accountable, and of the highest quality.

CARF International is an independent, not-for-profit family of organizations (including CARF, CARF Canada, and CARF-CCAC) that provides accreditation in the field of human services.

The accreditation is for the following Nelson CARES services:
Community Services, Community Housing, Employment Services, Job Development, Job Supports, Jobsite Training, and Organizational Employment Services
