In today's ever-evolving society, it is crucial to support and uplift diverse families to foster a sense of belonging and inclusivity. Diversified Kamloops, strives to stay up to date on unique needs and challenges that diverse families face, which is why we are dedicated to providing a range of resources and community connections to support them on their journey.


This is a live resource and is updated regularly. If you are a service provider and would like to have your services added please send an email to: diversifiedkamloops@outlook.com


This website advocates for families' right to select services that best fit their needs without judgment. While we primarily recommend Neuro-Affirming services, ABA services are also included in this resource and are distinctly marked. This resource aims to be inclusive of all families' needs while providing education and information.


If you have any questions about Neuro-Affirming therapies I encourage you to reach out and speak with me directly.
