We are a resilient nation. Takla is always one of the first communities to say Yes! We’ll do this! We’re the first ones in for pilot projects, which means we’re first for much of the funding, which serves our community. We do our work by looking at who we are, being honest, and now by gathering and tracking data so we can plan for the future. As a Council we are striving to do things properly, planning for the future. As families, we have a low ratio of children and families involved with the Ministry.

Transformations
In 2018 Takla Nation explored new ways for healing and found Transformations. Under the leadership of Deputy Chief Sandra Teegee, with the full support and approval for own-source funding by Chief and Council colleagues, more than XX?? Takla Nation members and employees participated in the four-day healing journey by spring 2019. Transformations has been a great foundation for many of us; now we’re ready for the next healing step, for ourselves and our Nation. We offer this photo gallery in honour of the hard work of everyone on this path.
