This guide was envisioned as a collective resource that is a living document and was built by an Emily Carr alumni and studying Library Technology student at Langara, who gratefully pooled these resources from various communities and their knowledges. However, this is not an exhaustive list of all the programs, services and communities that exist in so-called "Vancouver". If you or anyone you know has relevant knowledge of local non-profits or other helpful organizations and community-led initiatives that may help students, please get in touch with the library (library@ecuad.ca). The library would like to especially encourage current students to share what they know to best serve their own needs.
There are many facets that contribute to living a balanced and healthy life. Sometimes it can be hard to know where to start when faced with a challenging time, whether that is a crisis, or more neutral issue. May the resources offered here offer solace, enjoyment, and support. Navigate with the side bar to the left or use the links below to explore this section's resources.
