Mission Statement
Focus Foundation of BC seeks to advance the education, mental health, and social well-being of individuals and families and to help them thrive. We are humbly dedicated to creating potent solutions that foster transformational growth and change that lasts a lifetime.
About This Cause
Focus Foundation of BC was formed in 1975 as a non-profit organization to provide innovative social and educational programs for children ages 13-19 who struggle with school and personal circumstances. In contrast to approaches that focus on deficits and problems, we seek to build a tailored program for each child based on their unique gifts, talents, and strengths — thus inspiring hope and promoting positive engagement. Our programs are dedicated to fostering social and emotional well-being, resilience, healthy interconnections and relationships, and personal confidence and competence. Focus BC operates Whytecliff Agile Learning Centres (in Langley and Burnaby). These Centres are two of only 14 schools recognized by the BC Ministry of Education that provide highly specialized education programs and tailored learning environments for a unique group of youth with special educational and emotional needs. Students reach the requirements of high school graduation with confidence to begin the next chapter of their lives. The unique curriculum, blended with a tailored therapeutic program, builds talent, develops skills and internal motivation, inspires hope, encourages character development, and removes barriers that these youth would otherwise face.
