New Foundry Centre Locations Announced
We’re very happy to see twelve new Foundry centres included as part of the 2023/2024 Ministry of Mental Health & Addictions (MMHA) budget announcement. All young people and their caregivers across BC should have equitable access to integrated health and social services, and this expansion brings us closer to that goal.
Staying true to our culture of collaboration, we’ll be partnering with communities in BC to implement these new Foundry centres, creating seamless pathways of care for young people and their caregivers.
We’re so grateful to the Government of BC, our partners and supporters, and we look forward to further collaboration to bring this expansion to fruition.
The next 12 new centre locations have yet to be identified. Our team is working closely with our Foundry network, youth and families and key partners to identify a process for this phase of expansion. Continue to check this page for more updates regarding our expansion process.

Land Acknowledgement
At Foundry BC, our provincial work extends across lands that are built on a complex history of colonization. These lands are home to many First Nations, Métis and Inuit Peoples today. Indigenous people’s histories, knowledges and ways of being are diverse and unique to every community Foundry has a presence in.
We recognize and respect Coast Salish Peoples as traditional stewards of the stolen, occupied, and ancestral lands of the xʷməθkwəy̓əm (Musqueam), sel̓íl̓witulh (Tsleil-waututh), Skwxwú7mesh (Squamish), S’ólh Téméxw (Stó:lō), Stz’uminus Nations and the Hul’qumi’num Treaty Group that our central office is located on.
