Bridge of Hope - The Vision for the Program

Large color LogoThe vision for the Adopt-A-Native-Elder Program is illustrated in the logo. The Adopt-A-Native-Elder Program forms a rainbow bridge over two people within a traditional hogan. Within the bridge are two hands reaching for each other. One hand portrays the grandmother in her hogan, the other hand, ourselves. The eagle feather carries our prayers that we share for the healing of the sacred circle within the rainbow. Our program was created to build a bridge of giving hearts that honors the people of the earth.

We are a private, federally approved, charitable non-profit organization whose purpose is to assist traditional Elders in maintaining their traditional spiritual and cultural lifestyles.
