Ohsweken, Ontario
Established in 1992, Grand River Employment and Training (GREAT) is a non-profit organization providing employment and training supports to Six Nations band members regardless of their residency. GREAT is recognized by the Six Nations community, and both Six Nations Elected and Confederacy Councils as the Aboriginal Skills and Employment Agreement Holder for employment and training programs for Six Nations. Located in the heart of Ohsweken, ON, GREAT operates out of a 45,100 square foot building, consisting of four wings each representing a longhouse and the manner that Haudenosaunee villages were once structured. GREAT is primarily funded through Employment and Social Development Canada (ESDC), Employment Ontario (EO), and Indigenous Services Canada (ISC). Over the years, GREAT has worked alongside many government community services organizations, municipalities, colleges, sector councils, and Indigenous and non-Indigenous employers to create optimal job opportunities for the community.
