While you are practising social distancing - if you require non-emergency assistance, and you are not active on one of the co-op online social networks, please feel free to contact one or more of the following co-op floor volunteers, who can communicate your needs to the wider AV Co-op community. We may not be able to assist you personally, but we can relay your situation to the rest of our neighbours.

Limiting usage of common spaces
For the foreseeable future, the Board of Directors has closed common space bookings and asks all members to limit using common spaces (especially the Common Room, Lobby, Playground, and Corridors/Breezeways) to help prevent the spread of COVID-19. More details here.
Cancellation of in-person events
Following the BC Health Ministry's recommendations to practice social distancing, the Events Committee is postponing our events for the month of March. We have members of our community who are especially vulnerable to the effects of COVID-19, and who need to be protected.
