Our Team
At the Crisis Centre of BC, our commitment to a world where the human experience of suicide and crisis is met with compassion, respect, and understanding is realized through the dedication of our program and operational leadership teams, and the strategic guidance of our Board of Directors. These individuals, alongside our incredible staff team and volunteers, work tirelessly to fulfill our mission: to provide opportunities for connection where people are valued and supported to address crisis and suicide. While you won't be meeting the website team, you'll be engaging with the key figures driving our trauma-informed and equitable mental health crisis response system.
