Land Acknowledgement
We recognize that language, culture and education are fundamental aspects in Indigenous communities. Encompass is committed to establishing effective, sustainable partnerships with Indigenous agencies and communities, and to working collaboratively to develop culturally appropriate programs and policies in order to enhance the lives of those we support. We recognize that the natural world is a sacred place – it is part of food resources, healing practices, and spirituality and, therefore, it must be respected.
We acknowledge with gratitude that the programs, services and offices of Encompass are on the unceded, sovereign Indigenous lands of the Coast Salish People. This includes territories of the qʼʷa:n̓ƛʼən̓ (Kwantlen), q̓ic̓əy̓ (Katzie), Matsqui, and SEMYOME (Semiahmoo) First Nations.
ESSS is a grassroots, non-profit agency that provides a wide range of enriching and essential programs and support services to the communities of Langley. We offer a variety of free, accessible community programs and activities for all ages with a primary focus on children, youth, and families.
We are very excited that a Foundry site is coming to our community. We are working closely with our community members and partner organizations to develop this Centre. Foundry is forging a new, province-wide culture of care through the development of a network of centres in local communities and virtual services on foundrybc.ca. Foundry focuses on early intervention, and 5 core service areas, bringing mental health, substance use, peer support, primary care (medical) and social services together in a single place. Foundry makes it easier for young people aged 12-24 to find the care, connection and support they need. Foundry Langley is currently under development. Please continue to visit our site and social media platforms periodically over the next year to continue to see how the Centre is developing and what specific services will be offered at Foundry Langley.
