We welcome you to the Indian Residential School History and Dialogue Centre.

The records on our site emerge from the cultural and physical genocide that the Canadian government and churches conducted through the Indian Residential School System, including the ongoing impacts.

Bearing witness to these records may become overwhelming. If you are a Survivor or an Intergenerational Survivor and would like support, you can call the 24-hour National Indian Residential School Crisis Line at:

Description
Document consists of a summary of the establishment of the Coqualeetza Fellowship and the Information Centre in Vancouver.
Curatorial Comment
The Coqualeetza Fellowship was originally made up of alumni of the Coqualeetza Residential School. Established in 1950, its membership gradually expanded to encompass the broader Aboriginal population. It helped provide social services to Aboriginal youth coming to the city, helping them adapt to urban life. Members of the Coqualeetza Fellowship established the Vancouver Indian Centre Society, now known as the Vancouver Aboriginal Friendship Centre Society on East Hastings Street.
