Our community has followed the progress during the pandemic to hear our essential parameters of a set of legacy initiatives built over two years: antiracism; education; monument; seniors health & wellness; heritage; community & culture. We are very proud of the initial work that Nikkei Seniors executed in the first Japanese Canadian Survivors Health & Wellness Fund which wrapped in March 2022.
The time has come. For our elders past and present, we are humbled to share this important news.
The BC provincial government will be making an important historic announcement with the Japanese Canadian community on May 21, 2022. The announcement is in collaboration with local BC Japanese Canadian communities and the National Association of Japanese Canadians. You are invited to attend via live stream and witness the announcement at 11am Pacific Time.
Mission Statement: To promote and develop a strong Japanese Canadian identity and thereby to strengthen local communities and the national organization. To strive for equal rights and liberties for all persons – in particular, the rights of racial and ethnic minorities.
