Nelly's House - safe and inclusive housing community for 2SLGBTQIA+ seniors
Nelly's House is the flagship project of the Living with Pride Foundation, dedicated to providing a safe and inclusive community for 2SLGBTQIA+ seniors in Vancouver. This 100-unit building will address the pressing issues of isolation and loneliness, offering a supportive environment where seniors can age with dignity and pride. Nelly's House is more than just housing; it's a commitment to creating spaces where everyone feels at home, connected, and valued.
The Living with Pride Foundation is a non profit registered BC society created in 2022 specifically to address the need for purpose built seniors housing in Vancouver for our aging 2SLGBTQIA+ community, address isolation and loneliness and create safe queer seniors spaces.
At the Living with Pride Foundation, our work is centered around addressing the unique challenges faced by 2SLGBTQIA+ seniors. Through a comprehensive approach that includes advocacy, data collection, and research, we strive to create a world where all 2SLGBTQIA+ seniors can live with dignity, respect, and pride. Our efforts are organized into four key dimensions:
- Support Dimension
- Social Dimension
- Health Dimension
- Homes Dimension
