The 2026 BCSTH Annual Training Forum will take place at the Radisson Hotel Vancouver Airport in Richmond, BC from Wednesday, October 21- Friday, October 23, 2026. The AGM will take place on Tuesday, October 20, 2026.
Every year the BC Society of Transition Houses hosts an Annual Training Forum to gather and inspire anti-violence workers throughout BC. Whether in-person or virtual, the ATF brings people together to share their knowledge, skills and commitment to the work of supporting women, children and youth experiencing violence.
The 2026 BCSTH Annual Training Forum Call for Proposals is now live!
In a continuation of the BCSTH Annual Training Forum theme of Strength in Solidarity, we look forward to receiving proposals for workshops that explore our 2026 title, Amplifying Our Collective Voices.
In these challenging times, when we move beyond individual advocacy and come together to form collective power, we can amplify our message, and demand systemic change. Join us as we gather, listen, and learn, effectively sharing the soapbox amongst the diverse perspectives that define the anti- violence sector. Together, we will foster the curiosity and collaboration needed to inspire new and innovative ways to shelter and support all women, children and youth experiencing, or at risk of violence.
Please complete the application by Friday, July 3, 2026.
