The British Columbia Association of Community Response Networks (BC CRN) is a provincial non-profit organization dedicated to preventing the mistreatment of vulnerable adults, including older adults, through community awareness, collaboration, and action.
We believe in safe, inclusive communities where all adults are valued, respected, and free from abuse, neglect, and self-neglect. To support this vision, BC CRN strengthens and supports Community Response Networks (CRNs) across British Columbia.
Today, more than 90 CRNs represent over 250 communities, bringing together concerned residents and partners from social services, non-profit organizations, businesses, government, health care, law enforcement, and other sectors. These local networks lead prevention, education, and awareness initiatives while identifying common challenges and opportunities for change at the local, regional, and provincial level.
As the backbone organization, BC CRN provides education, training, project funding, and practical resources to help CRNs thrive. We also work collaboratively with government and community partners to advance the safety, dignity, and well-being of adults across the province.
The British Columbia Association of Community Response Networks is grateful for funding support from the Province of British Columbia.
