The Bloom Group provides housing, health and social services to Vancouver's most vulnerable, including seniors and women.
The Bloom Group responds to the most urgent needs of Vancouver’s Downtown Eastside.
The Bloom Group (formerly known as St. James Community Services) has been active since 1961. We are doing the heavy lifting in building and retaining places for 2000 people to live in Vancouver each year.
