Who we are...
The Sasamans Society is a non-profit Aboriginal organization established in Campbell River in 2010. Our vision is to strengthen our children and families in a community-driven and culturally appropriate manner. In the kwak'wala language, Sasamans means "our children". The society's name reflects our intention to listen, acknowledge and honor the voices of the children and families in

the communities that we serve. Sasamans is supported and guided by a board of directors (BOD), comprised of 16 community representatives from our partnering communities and organizations. Sasamans is funded through the Ministry of Children & Family Development, under the Indigenous Approach, to co-develop creative traditional service delivery models that meet the needs of our communities. The work undertaken by Sasamans is designed to identify the gaps in service and complement the work being completed by Aboriginal urban agencies and/or Fist Nations bands. Additional funding is sought through grant opportunities. We measure our accomplishments by the success we achieve in balancing our limited resources with the needs of the communities we serve. W do this by identifying high priority COMMON needs across our various communities.
