The AIFC prides itself on being Guided by Our Elders.
One of the unique attributes of the American Indian Family Center is that its staff, Board of Directors, and programs are grounded in the culture and values of the American Indian community and guided by our elders' wisdom. Our Elders provide us with cultural teachings, connection to society, and infinite wisdom. Utilizing the leadership provided by our community's wisdom keepers, the AIFC strives to continue growing knowledge of cultural identity and holistic ways of life.
