Cultural Supports

The Indigenous Wellness Program (IWP) acknowledges that we both reside and work within the unceded territory of the Stó:lō First Nations. IWP connects with the First Nations communities from Chilliwack to Boston Bar. We coordinate treatment strategies, provide short-term intervention and work directly with existing health and social services providers to achieve to advocate and ensure Indigenous residents are receiving the quality care necessary for their healing journey and overall wellbeing.
