Foundry Burnaby (Coming Soon)
Land Acknowledgement
Foundry Burnaby acknowledges that we operate on the ancestral and unceded territories of the xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam), Sḵwx̱wú7mesh (Squamish), səlilwətaɬ (Tsleil-Waututh), and kʷikʷəƛ̓əm (Kwikwetlem) Peoples. We are committed to providing culturally sensitive services for the community. As a settler organization, it is our responsibility to dismantle colonialism in our sector and to strive to respectfully hold and nurture relationships with Indigenous Peoples, including Indigenous youth and family advisors, staff, community agencies and partners, who lead, guide and inform our work.
Foundry Burnaby will support the health and wellness needs of youth and their families. Our services will be free and confidential.
Foundry Burnaby will be operated by BC Centre for Ability (BCCFA). At Foundry centres, multiple service providers and organizations work together to provide a variety of services to youth ages 12-24 and their families.
BCCFA serves as a perfect complimentary piece to the Foundry model of care given its work with clients with a variety of developmental and physical disabilities, many of whom also experience mental health and wellness challenges. Foundry Burnaby will provide much needed support to these young people and many others in the community.
Our Partners
Coming Soon! We are excited to expand our partnerships with other local organizations to provide young people in Burnaby with these services.
