Home

The Santa Cruz Indian Council is an inter-tribal Non-Profit 501-(c)(3) organization composed of Native American and non-native members in the Central California region.  We are dedicated to teaching respect for traditional Native American cultural values; supporting cultural enrichment opportunities that contribute to Native American identity development; advancing the quality of educational content and cultural sensitivity of educational services available to the youth of our region;  and promoting cultural understanding of Native American traditions in our communities.

Our Mission Statement

The Santa Cruz Indian Council’s purpose is to meet the Intertribal needs of Native Americans on the Central Coast, with an emphasis on our 7th Generation (youth).  We promote the empowerment, unity and healing of our community in order to preserve the traditions and values of Native Americans.  Our goal is to foster an educational resource and a cultural exchange between all people, thus strengthening the sacred circle of life.

Can you help us?

We are looking for a home! The SCIC is seeking a 600-1000 SF space in Santa Cruz County with some parking and a restroom where we can meet, house our resource center, and hold cultural enrichment programs.  We are a 501c3 organization and your generous donation of space would be tax deductable.

We are very grateful for all of the support we got from the community at our

3rd Annual Intertribal Gathering and Youth Powwow

We currently meet at the S.C. Native TANF Office:

Please Join Us at the Ohlone Day Festival in Felton, September 20, 2008!  We are honored to serve at this event, and we salute our Ohlone Brothers and Sisters on their day of celebration.
