Victoria’s Vital Signs
Author:
Date: 2006
Abstract: The Victoria Foundation has launched Victoria’s Vital Signs as a way of fulfilling our motto “connecting people who care with causes that matter.” It will help our organization, our donors, and other community groups to address our needs and opportunities. Vital Signs will help us better understand the social, economic, environmental and cultural factors that contribute to the quality of our lives. Each indicator shows what is happening in a particular area; combined, they provide an important picture of the wellbeing of our community. Key highlights of this first Victoria’s Vital Signs report show that there are many things to celebrate about living in Greater Victoria, however low income families, youth and people who are homeless are disadvantaged. The cost of living and housing are a huge challenge for many people in our community, and literacy is key to people’s long-term success and quality of life.
