Empowerment Through Opportunity
Mission Possible transforms lives through meaningful work. We empower people typically excluded from the traditional workforce—like those facing homelessness and housing insecurity, poverty, and other barriers to employment—by paving a pathway to long-term jobs and lasting change.
How We Help
Right now thousands of people in Vancouver’s Downtown Eastside are unfairly shut out of meaningful work and opportunity. We address this challenge head-on by helping people navigate their journey to a life-giving livelihood—through coaching, training, on-the-job work experience in our two social enterprises, and more.
Keeping the neighbourhoods clean brings me pride. I get a lot of compliments from people; they say thank you, and they smile when they see us around. It makes you feel good!
MP Maintenance Program Associate
To me, it’s a miracle that MP helped me. I believe in myself again. I have motivation in myself again. MP taught me to value myself again and be a better person.
Employment Readiness Program Associate
Overall, I just want to get up every day and go to work and do something where I feel like I am making a difference in my city, and if I can help someone along the way, that would be the icing on the cake!
