About
Established in 1993, the Portland Hotel Society (PHS) is a nonprofit organization that focuses on providing housing for at-risk and underserved individuals in the community of Vancouver, British Columbia. The organization began its work two years prior to its official founding with the transformation of a downtown hotel into a homeless shelter. The hotel became the first of many conversions, and the Portland Hotel Society has since expanded its efforts to include the formation of other housing forms and investments in community services.
