What is a Wyakin?

According to Native legend, a wyakin is a spiritual being that guides and protects a person throughout life. As a rite of passage, adolescents were taken to an isolated location where they remained alone and vulnerable until visited by a wyakin (often in the form of an animal or bird) in a vision or dream. Once the wyakin spirit had revealed itself, it stayed with the individual and served as a guiding force for life.

The Wyakin Mission

To serve as a conduit, connecting wounded and injured veterans to their successful and fulfilling civilian futures through education, development, and guidance.

The Wyakin Culture

We believe that by serving and sacrificing in the name of our safety and freedom, wounded veterans have earned the right not to a handout, but to our very best efforts to assist them in purposing their commitment and hard work towards a successful and fulfilling civilian future.
