Many program and service planners face the challenge of creating a welcoming environment for all community members. Because there are many aspects to identity and because exclusion can relate to a wide range of barriers, developing effective strategies to support full participation can be difficult and complex.


The concept of “social inclusion” provides a useful framework that can help guide the development of comprehensive strategies to support the open and welcome participation of all people in community life.

1 Report-Power of Place
Integrating Upper St’át’imc Knowledge Systems into Lillooet Area K-12
2009 by Scott Graham and Brenda Ireland
The aim of the Power of Place project was to engage local educational stakeholders in a participatory process of identifying community-based strategies for including St’át’imc knowledge and culture in Lillooet area school curriculum and pedagogy, and thereby contribute to the enhancement of learning environments for St’át’imc students. The final research report, the PoP curriculum enhancement toolkit, and the PoP conference summary report comprise the three documents that tell the story of what the PoP project is about, what it achieved and what kinds of developmental steps ought to be taken from here.
