Nexus BC Community Resource Centre Society

The Nexus BC Community Resource Centre Society is a Canadian nonprofit organization dedicated to providing comprehensive support services to various sectors of the community in the North Okanagan region.

Overview

Established with the goal of addressing diverse community needs, Nexus BC offers a wide range of programs and resources. The organization focuses on supporting job seekers, newcomers to Canada, seniors, and volunteers by providing resources that cover employment, housing, health, legal issues, and food support.

Programs and Services

  • Employment Programs: Nexus BC provides job coaching services, including resume help and skills upgrading. They also offer an employment program specifically designed for individuals over 50, which aims to unlock new job opportunities through a classroom-based curriculum.
  • Newcomer Support: The organization assists newcomers in finding employment that recognizes their education, skills, and experience, ensuring a smoother integration into the Canadian job market.
  • Senior Services: Nexus BC serves as a clearinghouse of information for seniors, offering assistance with government forms, income tax clinics, and providing resources such as housing guides and directories of senior discounts. They also host events like the Aging Well Expo and tax clinics for lower-income seniors.
  • Community Engagement: The organization fosters community engagement through initiatives like the Vernon Seniors Action Network, which addresses issues affecting seniors in the community.

Additional Initiatives

Nexus BC also engages in community awareness and workshops focused on emergency preparedness, including preparing for local disasters like wildfires. They organize annual fairs and training programs aimed at enhancing job skills and adapting to community needs.

History and Funding

Nexus BC Community Resource Centre Society has been operational since 1992, with a reasonably stable funding base for its seniors services. However, the organization seeks additional resources to expand its services, improve technology, and enhance outreach capabilities, particularly for seniors who face challenges with digital technology.
