About Us

Enhancing the well-being of the diverse people in the East Kootenay

Community Connections Society of Southeast BC (CCSSEBC), often abbreviated to CCS, is a non-profit charitable organization that provides programs and services to Cranbrook and the East Kootenay region.  Since incorporation in 1982, CCS has provided integrated, accessible social services to individuals and families throughout the East Kootenay Region.  To respond to community needs we deliver quality services both directly and through community partnerships.  Originally a women’s collective (Cranbrook Women’s Resource Society) formed to provide safe harbor to women fleeing domestic violence, the agency has grown considerably over the years and has taken in new programs in response to emerging local needs and funder opportunities.

We currently employ approximately 105 part-time and full-time staff to run our programs throughout the region.

CCS also sponsors and provides administrative support to the Cranbrook Food Action Committee and the Early Childhood Development Committee.

Be a recognized leader in the East Kootenay communities, and beyond, in providing a wide spectrum of supports to individuals and families.
