Ponca Economic Development Corporation - PEDCO

Directions Website

Ponca Economic Development Corporation - PEDCO PEDCO is a tribal non-profit corporation responsible for providing economic development activities for the Ponca Tribe of Nebraska.

In 2001, the Ponca Tribe of Nebraska (PTON) chartered the Ponca Economic Development Corporation (PEDCO) as a tribal corporation responsible for providing the Tribe with sustainable capital investment opportunities. Ponca Development is the trade name. Ponca Development operates outside of the political processes of the Tribe and provides oversight responsibility for the Ponca Tribe of Nebraska’s economic development activities. In order to remain free of the political process and at the direction of the PTON’s Tribal Council, Ponca Development successfully negotiated its own Self-Determination (638) Contract with the Bureau of Indian Affairs. A Board of Directors is comprised of PTON, tribal members and is chartered with responsibility for developing business opportunities, investment vehicles and tribal economic development ventures. In 2012, the Ponca Tribe of Nebraska chartered OSNI Ponca, LLC to be the new tribal corporation for economic development. PEDCO will remain in existence, but will act as the non-profit community development corporation for the Ponca Tribe of Nebraska.

ADHD Awareness Month: Building Understanding Through Awareness

This October, we're recognizing ADHD Awareness Month by shining a light on what ADHD really looks like and the many ways there are to feel supported.

ADHD is often more than what others see on the surface. What may appear as restlessness, difficulty finishing tasks, or losing track of time can feel like a constant struggle to slow down, get started, or stay focused. Understanding these experiences helps us replace judgment with compassion and support.

Whether you live with ADHD or care about someone who does, this month is a reminder that understanding starts with curiosity, not judgment.

Through our partnership with CredibleMind, Ponca Tribe of Nebraska members have access to valuable mental health resources, information, and tools to help navigate life's challenges.

Let's work together to increase awareness, reduce stigma, and foster a more supportive community for everyone.

What do you actually value?

Not what you think you should value. Not what sounds good on paper. What genuinely matters to you?

Knowing your core values isn't just a feel-good exercise. It's a foundation. When you know what you stand for, decisions become clearer, relationships grow stronger, and life starts to feel more intentional.

Take a moment to reflect: Which of these values resonates most with you?

Have you ever said, "I'm just in a bad mood," without knowing why?

Sometimes what we're experiencing isn't a single emotion but a mood that's been lingering in the background. While emotions are often triggered by specific situations, moods can last much longer and affect how we interpret everything around us.

The good news? Recognizing the difference is a powerful first step toward understanding yourself and improving your mental well-being.

Take a moment today to check in with yourself. What are you really feeling? Visit https://pedco.crediblemind.com/topics/moods-emotions for free resources to support you on your journey.
