Campbell River Women's Resource Centre

In 1985 The Campbell River Women’s Resource Centre gave birth to the Campbell River and North Island Transition Society (CRNITS). The Ann Elmore Transition House then opened in 1987. The Women’s Centre has become our most esteemed elder, and in 2019 the Campbell River and North Island Transition Society took over the administration of the Women’s Centre programs and services.
