About Yaffa House
The Vancouver Yaffa Housing Society was organized in 1993 for the specific purpose of creating housing facilities having Jewish cultural and ethnic atmosphere and offering opportunities for those with mental disabilities to participate within the Jewish Community. Yaffa House opened its doors to its first five residents in 2000, and today offers a total inventory of 19 beds in four separate facilites.
