Kackaamin Family Development Centre

About Center

There are male, female, youth and family sweats throughout the session. They are hosted on campus and are facilitated by our Cultural / Spiritual Coordinator. This gentle and safe place has been likened to the womb of our mother wherein much self discovery and gratitude can be found. All clients are encouraged to participate in the spiritual healing and awakening that is available in the Sweat Lodge. It is our belief that through the insertion of a 12 step support program that recovery is far more likely. There are two scheduled AA meetings weekly. One is hosted onsite at Kackaamin and one is off campus in the town of Port Alberni. All adult clients attend these on a rotating schedule that allows for childcare to be possible. Clients make meaningful connections that create a more sustainable recovery. The life skills learned in the 12 step programs through peer support are part of the foundation that is laid during our session.
