Created in Richmond, B.C. in 1973, Chimo Community Services is a non-profit organization serving people through crisis care, transition and education.

We aim to prevent tragedies and save lives. We strengthen and empower individuals, families and communities. We build bridges of understanding and connect all clients to essential community resources.

Each year, we serve over 10,000 individuals and families from different cultural backgrounds, age groups, family lifestyles, and economic situations. Through ten program areas, we provide diverse services in twelve languages. Our services span a continuum from community building, counselling and individual crisis support, to legal advocacy, housing support and education. We engage in collaborative community planning and develop innovative resources to address emerging needs.
