The North Okanagan Friendship Center Society (NOFCS) has been in existence for 48 years since its inception in 1977 as the United Native Nations Friendship Society. NOFCS has grown from humble beginnings into a recognized and credible organization in the effective delivery of a range of social services for urban Aboriginal people. We endeavor to assist whoever walks in the door needing help.
The Center is a place where people can meet for social, recreational, cultural and education activities. There are diverse programs that offer support and many opportunities for prevention, counselling, prenatal care, early childhood development, youth and elder programs, housing for young people (19 – 30 years), and employment and training programs.
We continue to advocate and embrace our right Aboriginal heritage through our various cultural events and activities and in particular our season events throughout the year.
NOFCS continues to support the overall Friendship Center Movement, within British Columbia and Canada, which is built upon community support, trust, strong leadership, tradition and faith. The Friendship Center Movement is mandated to improve the quality of life for Aboriginal people through Canada. The BC Aboriginal Association of Friendship Centers is the umbrella association for the 25 Friendship Centers in British Columbia.
