The VISION of Salt Spring and Southern Gulf Islands Community Services Society is to support an inclusive community in which everyone lives in a healthy, caring and sustainable environment.

The MISSION of Salt Spring and Southern Gulf Islands Community Services Society is to plan for and provide quality services to support and strengthen individuals, families and communities.

2001 - 2006 Strategic Plan

Our logo was introduced in 2005 as part of an organizational renewal process recognizing 30 years of service to the community.

Prior to 2005 the logo was a line drawing of the the original Lady Minto Hospital-the home base of SSI Community Services.

There is still immense pride in the sense of history, caring and stability that this building represents to the community. Salt Spring Island Community Services will continue to prize, protect and promote this link to community history.

The needs of today’s communities have brought about significant
changes. Services are delivered from locations beyond the main building – from other sites, through mobile outreach, and in the delivery of services to other Southern Gulf Island communities.

The common element and foundation of all our services remains that of helping people – as individuals, in families, in groups and communities.

The logo is centered on the image of a heart, which represents the courage, caring, and compassion that gives us our role as the “heart of the community”.

Thank you to Boodie Arnott for the design.
