N'Amerind Friendship Centre
The N’Amerind Friendship Centre strives to foster a safe, culturally diverse environment that advocates for and supports the well-being of Indigenous Peoples in the London region.
The N’Amerind Friendship Centre operation is based upon on the principles of providing guidance, counselling and referral services to Urban Indigenous people. The objective is to promote the spiritual well-being, mental strength, intellectual capacity, emotional stability and physical health which will enable individuals to take positive steps to secure their wellbeing.
N'Amerind also strives to inform representatives of community agencies in London about Indigenous needs and issues through an Indigenous voice and presence at urban community events, meetings, education forums, community networking and outreach activities. The goal is to increase the awareness levels of Indigenous Nations within the mainstream populace in order to reach an enhanced understanding of Indigenous culture and uniqueness of the local Indigenous traditions.
