Edward Boe is among a growing number of seniors who have reached out to Mission Possible , a Downtown Eastside non-profit, for help in rejoining the workforce.

According to the 2023 Vancouver Homeless Count, 21 per cent are seniors, and nearly half of those are facing homelessness for the first time.
