Thank you for taking part in this survey.

Skeena Diversity Society provides a broad spectrum of settlement services from language to immigration, employment supports and community connections as well as anti-racism training for the community. We organize events that promote understanding of multiculturalism and diversity in the community and encourage celebrations of our uniqueness while building a vibrant inclusive community.
