Pimacihowin
"Making a Living"
The Pimacihowin project includes youth between the ages of 16-21 attending Cst. Robin Cameron Education Complex and Stobart Community School in Beardy’s Okemasis First Nation.
The program follows a semester system which consists of two five-month semesters in one academic school year.
The Pimacihowin Project collaborates with the housing coordinator and public works director to establish the priorities of renovation projects within the community.
Since the implementation of this project, these youth have shown increased attendance, engagement, and completion of training modules.
The Pimacihowin Project is a program that is recognized and supported by the Ministry of Education with the government of Saskatchewan. Additionally, the Pimacihowin Project also registers their participants with Saskatchewan Youth Apprenticeship Program.

Our Process:
Concept l Design l Build
Our Mission
To provide all Canadians access to high quality, healthy, energy efficient home designs that will last generations to come.
Quality
Our buildings are designed with longevity, air tightness, and superior insulation in mind. During winter months, they keep heat in and cold out, and in summer maintain a comfortable 20 degrees indoors.
Health
Through the mechanical system design, our buildings promote exceptional indoor air quality.
Sustainability
We focus on a sustainable balance between energy consumption vs energy output (solar) and energy costs vs energy savings. The goal is to have the building run as efficiently as possible, while still making economic sense within your budget and creating the design aesthetic you want.
Smart Green Design Process
Starting from the initial concept discussion, we take you through the entire process of building your home, built with the latest energy saving technologies. We provide you with a home that meets all of your needs, saves you money on energy costs, and is extremely comfortable to live in.
