community services

Community Services play a crucial role in fostering long-term well-being across the Nicola Valley. With a growing team of dedicated professionals, including Community Prevention Workers in each community, SCFSS is committed to proactively identifying and addressing community needs. Our services are designed to empower individuals and families by providing tailored support and resources that promote resilience, wellness, and cultural connection.

Our services span a wide range of areas, including child and family wellness, youth support, language and culture programs, and community-based prevention initiatives. These efforts are supported by the recent expansion of our office spaces, such as the newly acquired Kengard Learning Center, which serves as our prevention hub, housing multiple teams focused on wellness and cultural preservation.

To ensure effective service delivery, SCFSS provides essential resources such as fleet vehicles for staff mobility and in-community office spaces like Quilchena, making it easier for us to be present and accessible where we’re needed most. These investments allow our teams to collaborate more effectively, strengthen relationships, and implement programs that truly make a difference.

As we continue to grow and work alongside communities, SCFSS is dedicated to creating a supportive environment that promotes the health and prosperity of all community members, ensuring that future generations thrive.
