● Offer the opportunity for Native Americans with disabilities to learn more about the creative arts & crafts of their heritage and to develop skills as able for their own creative satisfaction. Teachers are volunteers from PBT and the community.

Goals & Objectives

●To serve native Americans with disabilities or special needs in Escambia & Santa Rosa Counties.

● Assistance to prepare for and obtain competitive employment opportunity.

● Facilitate the Preservation of Native American History and Culture through traditional arts & crafts, interviews and documentation of the memories and wisdom of Native American elders.

● Expand our network of supporting businesses, professionals, and service agencies.

● When the Perdido Bay Tribe’s new ‘Bear Mobile’ rolls into communities throughout Escambia and Santa Rosa Counties, it brings much more than an opportunity for folks to learn about our Southeastern Creek heritage.

 ● Our Paths To Creative Living staff members are prepared to meet with local Native Americans with disabilities or special needs to learn how we can work together to get things done for the benefit of all.

 ● Can you help make this service known before the ‘Bear Mobile’ visits your school or community center?

 ● We seek to expand our network of supporting businesses, professionals, and service agencies. How can you help?
