Opening of Phoenix Pathways Creates 49 Homes and 42 Shelter Spaces for People in Chilliwack
People currently unhoused, and others at risk of homelessness, can now access shelter, supportive housing, and enhanced care at Phoenix Pathways, located at 45867 Trethewey Avenue in Chilliwack, B.C.
After several years of planning, construction and community engagement, residents, partners, neighbours and Phoenix staff celebrated the opening of the building at the corner of Rowat Avenue and Trethewey Avenue at a community barbecue on June 12, 2026.
The building features 49 studio-sized supportive homes, each with a kitchen, bathroom, and basic furniture. Residents can access daily meals, life skills and employment training, while they navigate health supports and connections to community services.
"Housing is foundational to well-being," said Justine Patterson, Chief Executive Officer of Phoenix Society. "Housing allows people to build stability, strengthen their well-being, and pursue the goals that matter most to them. With continuity of care and strong community connections, people can move from temporary shelter to permanent housing, and from stabilization to greater independence.”
