Who we are

Fish can't live out of the water

When a fish gets sick, we should check the water condition and the fish simultaneously because the fish live on the water. Without water purification, even if the fish gets better with a cure, it will happen again and again. Not only that fish many other fishes will get sick for the same reason.

Supporting the community is important, simultaneously supporting individual issues and situations. IOSC focuses on supporting the Indigenous community in the Lillooet area.

Our mission is
to provide meaningful support to Indigenous communities

At Indigenous Outreach Society of Canada, our mission is to provide meaningful support to Indigenous communities, with a focus on empowerment, wellbeing, and prosperity. We recognize the historical and ongoing injustices faced by Indigenous peoples, and we are committed to addressing these challenges through education, advocacy, and collaboration.

Our goal is to work in partnership with Indigenous communities to identify their unique needs, strengths, and priorities, and to provide culturally responsive programs and services that help to improve their quality of life. We believe that every Indigenous individual deserves access to equitable opportunities, resources, and support to thrive and contribute to their community.

We strive to create a better understanding of Indigenous culture and history, and to promote self-determination and sovereignty for Indigenous peoples. Our vision is a world where Indigenous communities are respected, valued, and have the resources and opportunities they need to achieve their full potential, celebrate their cultures, and contribute to a diverse and thriving society.
