Causes: Human Services
Mission: The Eagle's Nest Center is a not-for-profit organization created to help people of all races and nations co-exist in a peaceful manner by focusing on issues like fear, anger, guilt and shame associated with social problems such as drug and alcohol abuse, family violence and depression. Our goal is to provide services that address these issues through Native American based spiritual perspective. We plan to accomplish these goals by providing a safe environment where people can come and receive services that will help them create a healthy way of living in today's world for themselves as well as continued support to maintain a healthy co-existence in this world among all people.
Results: We have spent much of our past year developing an outdoors education program for at-risk youth, as well as replicating a holistic recovery program. We have donated beds, a mini-van and wood stove to families that could provide for themselves and fundraising to continue our work. We have also spent one day a week each month involved with local state prisons to help the Native American inmates with prayer ceremonies.
