Brown, 25, recorded two goals and nine assists in 93 MLS matches (73 starts) with Vancouver from 2021-24.
"I've always felt that RSL is a top club, in which I see a team and staff who have a great collective spirit," said Brown. "I've experienced first-hand the quality of football RSL plays, it's an exciting style for sure.
"I'm really looking forward to working under Pablo (Mastroeni) and I'm very appreciative for the opportunity to integrate with him, the staff, and obviously a very talented group of players. To the supporters, I am excited to represent you and this great city. I'll give everything I have to help this club reach its goals, and I can't wait to meet you."
The Whitecaps selected the Jamaica international in the first round (23rd overall) of the 2021 MLS SuperDraft.
Brown tallied one assist in 16 matches (11 starts) this season.
