Mi’kmaw Kina’matnewey led the effort to obtain day care services for Mi’kmaw communities and then coordinated training programs for staffing. Twelve day care centres or after-school programs were formed including ones in Acadia, Afton, Annapolis Valley, Bear River, Chapel Island, Eskasoni, Membertou, Millbrook, Pictou Landing, Indian Brook, Wagmatcook, and Waycobah.

Mi’kmaq Employment Training Secretariat has now assumed administrative support of the centres.
