Nil/Tu'o Child & Family Service, a Coast Salish-led organization based in Central Saanich, British Columbia, has been dedicated to strengthening families, communities, and Nations since its formation in 1997. It was created in response to the significant number of Coast Salish children in the foster care system, serving multiple First Nations with a mission to keep children within their families and communities. The organization offers two primary streams of services: Family Strengthening Programs, which provide additional support to youth, parents, and caregivers, and delegated support services that reflect Coast Salish definitions of care. With a commitment to confidentiality and cultural safety, Nil/Tu'o is constantly seeking Coast Salish caregivers to create nurturing homes for children and provides a range of programs to support families and children in need.
