The Saa’ust Centre is an oasis for families and survivors affected by the national inquiry into Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls (MMIWG), brought to life by the Urban Indigenous Peoples' Advisory Committee's community partnerships.
It is operated by the Vancouver Aboriginal Community Policing Centre, while the City continues to work with partners to create a permanent Indigenous healing and wellness centre.
The centre is located on the traditional unceded territory of the Coast Salish people, the ancestral home of the Musqueam, Squamish, and Tsleil-Waututh Nations.
