SHARE ON:
An Indigenous Healing Centre for Vancouver Island will be built by the Tsow-Tun Le Lum Society in the Cowichan Valley.
Tsow Tun Le Lum Healing Centre has been located on land leased from the Snaw-Naw-As First Nation, near Nanaimo, since July of 1986.
The new healing centre will have 16-rooms and 32 beds, reducing the number of beds in each room to two.
The current centre has 10 rooms with more beds in each room.
Executive Director Nola Jeffrey says the need to treat the underlying trauma that causes substance abuse and violence is as great as ever, especially since the news of 215 children buried in unmarked graves at a residential school in Kamloops.
