History
Yekoochet'en people have lived in the region of Cunningham Lake for thousands of years. In fact, the Yekooche people's very name derrives from the area - Ye Koo refers to Yeko Bun (Cunningham Lake) and Che describes the tail end of Nankut Creek.
Yekooche First nation was one of the five communities that made up the Tl'azt'en Nation band, from which it separated in 1994.

“The myth of independence from the mother is abandoned in mid- life as women learn new routes around the mother—both the mother without and the mother within.
