Vision and Mission
The Stó:lō vision encompasses the social, political, economic, and cultural development of the Stó:lō, as a nation. It is a vision of a First Nation's attempt to collectively aspire for a better world for its people - the people of the river, in a manner that is governed by its distinct culture and traditions, where each and every Stó:lō individual will attain a decent quality of life and dignity.
Stó:lō Nation Mission
To create a better world for our people, we, the Stó:lō House of Government, endeavor to:
- Provide high quality services;
- Practice and promote cultural values;
- Protect and manage our resources; and
- Operate in a fair, honest and respectful manner.
The vision will be realized through the combined efforts among and between the SN Chiefs Council, the SN Board, and the SN Executive staff. Altogether, they will be guided by the mission statement, as adopted by the Stó:lō Nation Chiefs in 1995.
