Background
Akamihk Community Development Society (ACDS) a Montana First Nation owned, not for profit society, was established in 2011 and has facilitated numerous training-to-employment programs for Montana First Nation and indigenous community members in career fields such as welding, remediation reclamation, solar installation, culinary arts and medical aid assistants.
MFN Management Inc. (a wholly owned Montana First Nation corporation) oversees companies involved in ventures such as the management of solar farms, commercial and domestic electrical construction, oilfield remediation, commercial and home construction, operation of medical clinics, operating a greenhouse and farming.
Both organizations have teamed up to establish this Centre to work with partners in developing innovative solutions for communities and industry that align with Indigenous cultures and business, for the execution of these solutions.
