About Campbell River Transition Society
CAMPBELL RIVER AND NORTH ISLAND TRANSITION SOCIETY (CRNITS) is a registered non-profit organization with a mission to provide safe shelter and services for vulnerable women and their children fleeing violence on northern Vancouver Island. For over thirty years the Society has worked to improve on and implement new services directly related to the issue of violence against women.
Our services include Ann Elmore Transitions House, Rose Harbour total change program/second stage housing, Women's Drop-In Center and our new build, Eagle Harbour. Upon completion in the Fall of 2023 Eagle Harbour will offer both second stage and long-term housing with a focus on senior women.
