"Learning For Life"

Fort Nelson Community Literacy Society is a non-profit, charitable organization focused on fostering literacy in different aspects throughout the communities in the Northern Rockies region. We offer literacy programming for adults, youth and families; advocacy supports, settlement and language support for newcomers to Canada and a variety of gatherings, classes, workshops and events. The Learning Centre is a support hub that welcomes all folks from all walks of life and a safe space that respects and celebrates diverse identities.

The mission and purpose of the Fort Nelson Community Literacy Society is to promote literacy and lifelong learning in Fort Nelson and the surrounding area, empowering individuals and families to achieve their full potential. We see learning as a powerful tool for change. We believe that through our work, we can contribute to creating a more equitable society where people hold each other up and where inequity and marginalization can be addressed and dismantled, creating stronger community members and a stronger society.
