The Columbia Shuswap Invasive Species Society (CSISS) is a non-profit organization dedicated to preventing and managing the spread of invasive species within the Columbia-Shuswap region.  We work with government partners, non-profit organizations and interested parties to document, control and educate the public about the seriousness and impact of invasive species.  

We humbly acknowledge that the region’s residents live, work, and learn on the shared territories of many Indigenous peoples, including the people who call this home, whose ancestors cared for this land with stewardship and protocols of respect – Sinixt, Ktunaxa, Secwépemc and Syilx (Okanagan). With gratitude we reflect on our relationship with the land, conscious of how we live and work. We are all responsible to do better in our relationships and in honoring the land.

Our Partners

CSISS partners with both regional and provincial organizations to stop the spread of invasives. We are able to deliver our programs with support from the Ministry of Forests, Lands and Natural Resource Operations & Rural Development (MFLNRORD), the Ministry of Environment and Climate Change Strategy (MoECCS), Habitat Conservation Trust Foundation (HCTF), Columbia Basin Trust (CBT), the Columbia Shuswap Regional District (CSRD), the Shuswap Watershed Council (SWC) and the Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure (MOTI) and the Invasive Species Council of BC (ISCBC).
