Case Study
Ulkatcho First Nation
A complete community website and editing studio built in partnership with Ulkatcho First Nation in Anahim Lake, British Columbia, with the training and policy work for the Nation to run it independently.
The ClientA Website The Community Runs
Ulkatcho First Nation, based in Anahim Lake, British Columbia, needed a community website that could carry news, programs, and services to members, and that the Nation's own staff could keep current themselves.
Working in close partnership with the Nation's team, we built ulkatcho.ca along with a modern editing studio, supported the Nation's communications policy work, and delivered hands-on training so publishing lives with the community, not with an outside agency.

What We DeliveredMore Than A Website
The engagement paired a complete community website with the studio, policy foundation, and training that let the Nation own it fully.
A Complete Community Website
A modern website at ulkatcho.ca built around what community members and staff actually need, with every part of the site shaped in close partnership with the Nation's team.
A Modern Editing Studio
A content studio built on Sanity CMS, available at ulkatcho.ca/studio, gives Nation staff a clear, friendly place to write, edit, and publish without touching code.
Communications Policy Work
We supported the Nation's communications policy work so publishing decisions have a clear, community-owned foundation, not just a set of tools.
Hands-On CMS Training
Nation staff received hands-on training in the studio, working through real updates together until publishing felt routine rather than technical.
Capacity That StaysCommunity-Run, Not Agency-Dependent
The measure of this project is who runs it now. Nation staff publish and manage their own content independently, from everyday updates to new pages, using the studio built for them. The site belongs to the community in practice, not just on paper.
We remain in an ongoing supportive relationship with the Nation's team, available when they want us, and never a dependency for the work they now do themselves.
