Lookout Housing and Health Society was founded in 1971 to meet the needs of a growing number of homeless adults in Vancouver’s Downtown Eastside (DTES). Through innovative foresight and determination, Lookout extended its services to include shelters, supportive housing, independent housing, outreach, health services and resource centres. Today, Lookout operates 42 facilities and four extreme weather shelters. Lookout serves thousands individuals annually through its 90 programs in 14 municipalities across Metro Vancouver, the Fraser Valley and Vancouver Island.
