QUW'UTSUN SYUW'ENTST LELUM' CULTURE AND EDUCATION CENTRE

Quw'utsun Syuw’entst Lelum' (Cowichan teachings house) Culture and Education Centre promotes the understanding of Cowichan culture and language to both the First Nation and non-First Nation community, and provides educational support to Cowichan Tribes members.  The success of its programs is attributed to its holistic approach to improving the quality of life for all members and integrating its services with other Band and community services.

Policies and procedures are guided by the Education committee, and administered by a Program Administrator.  The education of Cowichan children On-Reserve is funded by Indian and Northern Affairs Canada (INAC).  Employment and training is funded by the Coast Salish Employment Training Society (CSETS).  Funding for the other programs and services comes from the Band’s own-source revenue and a variety of grants.
