Esketemc Health Centre

The Esk’etemc Health Department delivers holistic, community-based programs rooted in the ancestral teachings and traditions of the Secwepemc people. Their mission is to empower individuals and families by integrating modern medical practices with traditional knowledge to foster spiritual, mental, emotional, and physical well-being. The clinic is unique for its deep connection to the land and its adherence to the Seven Laws—such as respect, honesty, and humility—which guide their approach to both community and environmental health. This reciprocal approach ensures that healing is tied to cultural identity and the preservation of their traditional territory for future generations.
