Empowering Ideas Impacting Communities

Coding a future we own.

Mission

Natives empowering Natives

Codetalkers creates inclusive tech programs, courses, and apps that help tribal communities build digital skills, share ideas, and code a future they own.

Coding

As Natives who love to code, we want to create and share our programs to give students and professionals an opportunity to participate in the ever-growing IT industry.

Native

Knowing every tribal community is unique, we listen, learn and experiment to create custom programs, courses and apps specific to the needs of all stakeholders.

Reciprocate

Whether its learning a new programming language or discovering AI and robotics, reciprocation is an essential piece of community empowerment and self-determination.
