In fact, this is the most widely offered program of its type in Canada, with 38 groups located in: Cranbrook, Grand Forks, Kamloops, Kelowna, Prince George, Salmon Arm, Trail and District, Vanderhoof, Vernon, Burnaby, North Vancouver, Richmond, Vancouver, Abbotsford, Coquitlam, Langley, Maple Ridge / Pitt Meadows, Mission, Port Coquitlam, Powell River, Sechelt, South Delta, Surrey, White Rock, Alert Bay, Campbell River, Comox Valley, Nanaimo, Parksville, Saanich Peninsula, and Victoria.
