The Center was the creation of the US Forest Service Sequoia National Forest, Greenhorn District to bring attention to locals and visitors, the existence, past and present, of the Native People that inhabited this valley and surrounding areas, through many generations. The Council strives to educate and promote the history, culture, and ways of life of our sometimes forgotten people, by encouraging participation in our programs and classes offered by our dedicated volunteers.
