The American Indian Center provides cultural, social, and educational services, programming, and support to Chicagoland’s large and diverse Native community. They are a nonprofit organization that helps urban Natives connect with their culture. Established in 1953, the American Indian Center is one of the oldest urban Native centers in the country. Created out of love for community, the center’s founders sought to help Natives who moved to Chicago through the U.S. government’s relocation program. Today, the American Indian Center continues its mission by supporting Natives throughout the Chicagoland area.
