Under One Roof is an initiative of Squamish Helping Hands Society. The building is located in downtown Squamish and provides more than just affordable supportive housing and emergency shelter for those in need. Under One Roof contains a community food hub providing daily meals, showers, laundry, clothing and supplies.
Our vision is of a vibrant community gathering place that provides support, connection, learning, and a sense of belonging for all. All community members and organizations will be invited into the space to volunteer, eat together, attend or host events, obtain food, and access a full range of community supports and services.
