Who We Are
Dress for Success Vancouver empowers women and gender-diverse individuals to achieve financial independence and personal success through full and fulfilling employment. As an organization, we aim to understand and address the many ways different people are affected by barriers and discrimination that go beyond gender. We believe that everyone deserves to thrive in work and in life and we exist to support that journey through building skills and community and by opposing the systems and structures that bolster inequality.
Meet Our TeamWho We Serve
Our programs are open to all women and gender-diverse individuals who are seeking an environment that centres the experiences of women. We believe that everyone deserves the support and opportunities to strive for and achieve their goals and ambitions.
Commitment To Decolonization
Our office and staff are located on the unceded, ancestral and traditional territories of the xʷməθkʷəy̓əm, Sḵwx̱wú7mesh, and Sel̓íl̓wit-ulh Nations. We are committed to decolonizing our work and mission by working in partnership with – and learning from – Indigenous peoples as we strive to always fully embody our organizational values of inclusion, dignity, and hope.
