Our story

Driven by purpose. Grounded in the communities we serve.

Project Lift was founded on a simple belief: the right support, at the right time, can change everything — for workers and for the businesses that depend on them.

Why we exist

BC's hardest-working industries have been left behind.

For too long, mental health support and workforce training in BC has been designed for office workers and corporate teams — not for the people who build our roads, wire our buildings, drive our goods, and serve our communities.

Construction workers. Tradespeople. Truck drivers. Hospitality staff. These are the people who keep BC running. And they are facing a mental health and addiction crisis that most consultancies aren't equipped — or willing — to address.

Project Lift was built specifically for them. Our programmes are practical, stigma-aware, and designed for the real cultures and real pressures of these industries. We go on-site. We speak plainly. We don't lecture — we support.

Our mission

"To deliver risk reduction and workforce performance to BC's most overlooked industries — programmes informed by clinical expertise that protect workers, reduce employer liability, and build stronger, more resilient businesses."

Based in Surrey, BC

We're a local firm with genuine ties to the communities we serve. Surrey and the Lower Mainland are home to some of BC's most diverse and hardworking populations — and we're proud to be part of that community.

What guides us

Our values

🤝

People first, always

Every programme we build starts with one question: what do these workers actually need? Not what looks good in a proposal — what helps real people on real job sites.

Urgency, not bureaucracy

The crisis in BC's construction and trades sectors is happening right now. We move quickly, deliver practically, and don't hide behind long timelines or complicated proposals.

🏗️

Built for the culture

We don't recycle corporate wellness content. Everything we deliver is designed for trades culture — practical, plain language, without judgment, and built for people who work with their hands.

📍

Rooted in BC

We're not a distant consultancy parachuting in from out of province. We're local. We know BC's communities, industries, and WorkSafeBC landscape from the inside.

📊

Measured by outcomes

We set clear, measurable goals for every programme and review them with our clients. If something isn't working, we change it. Our success is your workers' wellbeing and your business results.

🌱

Whole business, whole person

You can't build a sustainable business without supporting the people who run it. We connect mental health, training, and strategy because all three matter — and none of them works without the others.

Why Project Lift

Built differently for BC's toughest industries.

Generic consultancies don't understand job site culture. We do. Here's what makes Project Lift different.

🎯

Industry-specific, not generic

Everything we deliver is designed for trades and construction culture — practical, stigma-aware, and built for people who work with their hands and don't have time for theory.

Proactive, not reactive

We don't wait for a crisis or a WorkSafeBC order. We build proactive programmes and site-level interventions that catch problems early — before they become tragedies or liabilities.

🔗

Training, strategy, and wellbeing — all in one

No other BC consultancy connects workforce training, business development, and mental health support. We offer all three — because real, lasting change needs all three.

📍

Local to BC, committed to the community

We're based in Surrey and serve the Lower Mainland and across BC — with genuine ties to the diverse, hardworking communities that power this province's economy.
