CHILLIWACK — After 20-plus years of service, a Chilliwack non-profit committed to restoration and reconciliation in local schools and the community has voted to discontinue its services in Chilliwack.
The board of directors for the Chilliwack Restorative Justice and Youth Advocacy Association unanimously decided to discontinue its services to the community effective November 1, 2025, according to a statement from board chair Mike Straiton.
“After more than two decades of dedicated service this difficult decision was made due to unforeseen circumstances,” Straiton said. “We extend our heartfelt gratitude to all who have supported and partnered with us throughout the years.”
Straiton issued the statement in response to an inquiry from Fraser Valley Today about whether the organization had hired a new executive director and if it was impacted by a July 2025 fire in the 45800 block of Wellington Avenue where its office was located inside the Community Policing Office.
