Empowering Indigenous Communities Through Healing, Skills, and Opportunity
Koda-Cree Ltd. is a 100% Indigenous-owned and operated company rooted in healing, resilience, and real-world success. Founded by residential school survivor Jean Whiteknife and Two-Spirit entrepreneur Massey Whiteknife, our mission is to empower First Nations, Métis, and Inuit communities with the tools to overcome systemic barriers and thrive — at work, at home, and in life.
Our flagship Holistic Employment Program weaves together certified job readiness training, trauma-informed mental health support, and financial literacy in a four-week intensive, followed by 12 weeks of personalized after-care. This isn’t just skills training. It’s life transformation. With over 85% of graduates gaining and keeping employment, our program has helped participants find stability, rebuild confidence, and reconnect with culture — often for the first time in generations.
Whether we're supporting communities with addictions recovery, resume writing, or navigating the oil sands work environment, our approach is always holistic, always human, and always Indigenous-led.
“He [Massey] provides this program for those who are willing to make a change within themselves and others in their life. He's very respected by us all in our group. I am thankful for this opportunity.” --Graduate Testimonial
"I appreciate your guys and the team continue looking out for our future warriors so we can build a great safe community for our families and our way as first nation. I can say I'm coming out of this program looking at life a little better - this opens a lot of doors for me. My family is going to be comfortable after a bit" --Graduate Testimonial
We work alongside Indigenous Nations, government funders, and hiring companies to ensure that success is not a moment — it’s a movement. With decades of experience and deep roots in community healing, we offer more than programs. We offer possibility.
