T’ee Teraa’in - Our Way of Life

For thousands of years, the Gwich’in Athabascan people have lived in the Yukon Flats, maintaining a deep connection to the land and traditional ways of life. CATG was founded to help preserve this heritage while building capacity for self-governance and providing essential services to our communities.
