About Sooke Shelter Society

The Sooke Shelter Society's mission is to ensure all people in the Greater Sooke Area have access to safe, affordable, appropriate, long-term housing. We do this though supportive services and connections to the community-based supports people need to keep their housing and avoid returning to homelessness. We also provide outreach services to those who are in need.
