The Port Alberni Friendship Centre, established in 1965, is an indigenous social service organization in Canada that provides a wide range of programs and services to indigenous peoples living away from their home community. Governed by a community board and supported by a diverse staff and volunteers, the centre offers programs such as addictions and mental health counseling, family support, early childhood development, and youth employment training.
Funded by various sources including Indigenous and Northern Affairs Canada, the centre's operations budget supports essential services like the Healthy Care Pregnancy Program, outreach legal advocacy, and the Elder's Program, all aimed at enhancing the well-being and support of community members in Port Alberni and surrounding areas.
