About
About Yellowhead Tribal Council
Yellowhead Tribal Council is a tribal council that brings together four First Nations from across Treaty Six territory in Alberta to support Nation-building and community well-being.
Yellowhead Tribal Council (YTC) is not a single First Nation. It is a tribal council made up of four diverse and vibrant communities from across Treaty Six territory:
- Alexander First Nation (Cree: Kipohtakaw)
- Alexis Nakota Sioux Nation
- O'Chiese First Nation
- Sunchild First Nation
YTC was established in 1977 to develop tribal control of economic, social, cultural and other developmental work within its member Nations. The Chiefs of the four member Nations lead the council. Its mission is to provide culturally grounded advisory services, programs and support that contribute to Nation-building and community well-being.
With more than 60 full-time staff, YTC offers programs that include post-secondary funding, housing, emergency management and fire safety, health services, a mental wellness response team, job skills training, child and family services, youth programs and YTC Gardens, a hydroponic growing initiative. In 1986 the council founded Yellowhead Tribal College.
