W̱JOȽEȽP means “place of the maple leaves” in the SENĆOŦEN language. W̱JOȽEȽP is located on the western side of the Saanich Peninsula near what is now known as Brentwood Bay. It has over 1000 members.
Over the past two years, South Island Indigenous Authority has funded community-based initiatives that support health and safety for families in community.
Over the summer, SIIA hosted four Craft and Social Nights for the W̱JOȽEȽP Nation!
This fall, W̱JOȽEȽP Nation members were busy making Ribbon Skirts through workshops organized by SIIA and facilitated by the fantastic Crystal Brune.
