About us
The Fraser Valley Invasive Species Society (FVISS) is a non-profit society, led by a volunteer board made up of members representing local and provincial government, NGO's, First Nations, naturalist clubs, industry, and the interested public.
We work within the boundaries of the Fraser Valley Regional District, which includes eight Electoral Areas and six municipalities: Abbotsford, Chilliwack, Harrison Hot Springs, Hope, Kent, and Mission.
FVISS is one of 13 independent Regional Invasive Species Organizations (RISOs) working to stop the spread of invasive species throughout BC. We work closely and collaboratively with the other RISOs, sharing knowledge and expertise regarding on-the-ground invasive species management, working together on consistent messaging for education & outreach programs, and collaborating on program ideas, professional development and funding applications.
