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.
