BC Association of Aboriginal
Friendship Centres

The BCAAFC works with Friendship Centres, partner organizations, and government institutions to develop and improve resources that support the health, wellness, and prosperity of urban Indigenous people and communities.

The Friendship Centre Movement began in the 1950s. The movement represents a national network, united by the vision of a vibrant society that supports Indigenous peoples and a brighter future in Canada.

Friendship Centres are community hubs. They offer culturally safe programs and services, and provide a welcoming space for all members of the community to share knowledge and connect with others.
