The Village Initiative is a network of over 60 organizations working together to better support the health and wellbeing of children, youth and families across the fast-growing West Shore-Sooke region.

By working as a team, The Village is busting barriers to make it easier for children, youth and families to access the services and supports they need, when they need them. This includes advising local governments on the social planning needs of their communities and supporting our frontline service providers. Learn about our priorities.
