Located on səmiq̓ʷəʔelə in Coquitlam, (formerly the Riverview lands), the 105-bed Red Fish Healing Centre (RFHC) is recognized as a “first of its kind in North America,” as it is believed to be the first, large, standalone centre dedicated to treating the concurrent disorders of mental health and addictions.

Parkin Architects is delighted to have worked with RFHC and its staff on this revolutionary facility.
