About this service
A:yelexw (Halqemeylem, meaning in good health) is a residential recovery centre for Indigenous adults living in the Fraser Valley. A:yelexw is a home-like context for adults who are struggling with complex addictions and mental health concerns. Programs and services are firmly grounded in Indigenous practices.
A:yelexw offers a flexible stay of up to one year and long term follow-up for as long as the participant wishes to engage. An Individual Recovery Plan is created with each participant: one-on-one work (e.g. mental health and addictions counseling, medical and traditional healing, employment and vocational plans) as well as group work (e.g. On the Land, Relationships, Anger Management, Life Skills, and Managing Thoxweya (addictions)).
Household chores are assigned to both participants and staff, who work alongside each other. Chores include inside work, such as cooking/cleaning, and outside work, such as maintaining the garden/lawns/outdoor areas.
