The name Tikinagen came from Chief Harvey Yesno of Eabametoong - symbolizing "the care and protection the traditional cradle board provides to us in our earliest years". Tikinagen was created to provide culturally-specific child and family supports - before this care for Indigenous children and families came from non-Indigenous communities.​

​

"Founded on two basic principles, as handed down by the chiefs. First, 'that no more children be lost from our communities'. Second, 'that a child and family service agency be created that would work with the people for the people, while respecting culture, heritage, and the concepts of the extended family'".
