Welcome to Gedakina
Gedakina is pronounced /g' dah keen nah/ and means, "Our world, a way of life" in the Abenaki language.
Our Mission
Gedakina is a multigenerational endeavor to strengthen and revitalize the cultural knowledge and identity of Native American youth and families from across northern New England and to conserve our traditional homelands and Sacred Places.
Our Success
What makes Gedakina successful is an approach that emphasizes interconnected programs and initiatives to reach Native American youth and families, with clear recognition that the challenges our people encounter on a daily basis are also interconnected. We use a multigenerational teaching approach, involving Community Elders, youth, and volunteers with a wide range of experience; we believe that everyone has something to share and that we can always learn something new and useful from each other.
