CHIMO Crisis Services is a non-profit organization specializing in community development and social services related to the natural crises that happen in everyday lives of individuals, families and neighbourhoods. CHIMO began in Richmond in 1973 and now delivers services to people throughout the Lower Mainland.
In conjunction with local residents and professional staff, CHIMO assists communities in preventing crises, helps strengthen capacities to support individuals, families, friends and neighbours through difficult times and provides direct support to people in crises.
CHIMO currently operates a range of community development initiatives, public education programs and direct services related to everyday crises (eg: violence, depression, suicide, health and safety issues, relationship and family concerns, etc).
CHIMO's programs and services are supported by the Government of British Columbia, the City of Richmond, Vancouver Coastal Health, United Way of the Lower Mainland, various grant funders, generous community donors and over 150 volunteers.
