Social Plan

Learn about the plan for the social well-being of Surrey residents.

The Plan for the Social Well-Being of Surrey Residents (shortened as the Social Plan) was adopted by Council in February 2006 to strategically direct the City’s actions on social issues in Surrey. 

Social Issue Priorities

In the plan, 5 social issue areas were identified as priorities:

  • Children and Youth
  • Community Development and Diversity
  • Crime & Public Safety
  • Housing and Homelessness
  • Substance Abuse and Addictions
