How we make our vision a reality
We operate three social enterprises whose purpose is to employ people with barriers to the workforce. We also produce some amazing products and services.

-
JustRenos
We specialize in interior renovations, painting and carpentry services for residential and commercial spaces in the metro-Vancouver area.
By providing work, we help:
Foster self-esteem
We believe each person has skills and values to offer. Work provides a context for people share these with others and be proud of what they’ve made.
Advance social and economic justice
We pay our employees a fair wage for their work. Earning an income reminds people of their dignity and helps reduce income inequality.
Provide community
Work is more than just earning a paycheck. Producing something together with others also builds friendship and creates a sense of belonging.
Develop health and well-being
People who work only a few hours per week show a vast improvement in overall physical and mental health compared with those who don’t.
Help us foster dignity through work
