It states that SUCCESS bridged the gap in immigrant settlement and adaptation. SUCCESS was opened its headquarters in Chinatown which is convenient for Chinese who would go to Chinatown via public transit to take advantage of its stores and professional services. Its services have expanded from basic settlement work to a holistic approach that helps immigrants become competent socially, culturally, linguistically and economically. SUCCESS in its 34th year, remains a growing successful organization that is continuing to serve the needs of the Vancouver Chinese community.
