RAHMA MEANS COMPASSION
RAHMA Foundation supports marginalized individuals and empowers them to overcome obstacles so they may thrive
Our Services
Affordable Housing
We assist marginalized individuals like women fleeing domestic violence, refugees and newcomers to secure affordable housing. Additionally, they are supported through language classes, education and employment training.
Peer Support Counseling + Case Management
Using a strength-based approach, we offer a sounding board where the client is supported to assess their needs and identify their priorities. From there, we help them navigate and access community and government resources and offer personalized support to overcome barriers and reach their goals.
Digital Access + Literacy
We provide computers and other devices to eligible clients. Moreover, we try to develop confidence and teach skills one-on-one to those facing challenges, especially older adults.
Community Outreach
We offer Compassionate Integrity Training to individuals and organizations to promote and build skills for compassion. Once a month we prepare and distribute approximately 100 meals to people experiencing homelessness in Vancouver’s Downtown Eastside.
