Simtiar Services Inc. is guided by a strong philosophy aligned with culturally informed beliefs and principles. Being that. Simtiar Services Inc. primarily serves Indigenous children and youth, we rely on the teachings of Elders who guide that for a child to be healthy and strong the physical, mental, and spiritual aspects of that child must be in balance.

In caring for and teaching children, we must focus on these aspects. We are taught that the life skills as well as the emotional, physical, and spiritual development can be achieved by learning how to live from the land and embracing the cultural traditions. Learning these skills creates a strong sense of identity and builds self-esteem.
