Our organization, Coast Salish Employment & Training Society, was created in 1997 through an agreement between 19 Coast Salish First Nations and 3 Aboriginal Friendship Centres and funded by Human Resources Development of Canada. The purpose our organization is to assist First Nation people within our territorial areas so that they may gain employment training or attain funding that will allow them to be employable. Employment is our number one goal.

Communities and Friendship Centres receive funding assistance from our offices so that they can provide these services as our branch offices. These services may be in the form of Career Counselling, Employment Training, Work Gear Purchasing and On the Job Projects.
