Telmexwawtexw Healing Centre
The primary mission of Telmexw Awtexw Healing Centre is to strengthen First Nations People to develop spiritually, mentally, emotionally, and physically. To heal from intergenerational trauma along with its compounding effects and thus reducing harmful dependencies on substances and behaviours. Being part of a culturally foundational inclusive community that encourages self discovery, growth and resilience will heal the spirit and allow for the strength to continue in the healing journey not only for one self but for the others around that person. The work at Telmexw Awtexw Healing centre takes place in collaboration with FNHA, Fraser Health, Fraser Salish regional communities and First Nation serving organization serving the Fraser Salish region.
