Bringing our education to you!
AIPF is available to the general public. A very distinct preview of the Indian Nations culture, and customs. Through "Tribal Pathways" students from across the nation can look, touch, and direct questions firsthand to the AIPF "Eminence" speakers.
Traditional customs will be shared, and Native Lore and Elder stories will be told by the Tribal Elders. Students at the Pre-school/Mid-Level, Jr. High, Junior College, Private Schools, State Universities and state /county education entities may partake in the Tribal Pathways unique knowledge of the Tribes Oral History and hear about the ways of the California Tribes before GOLD was discovered in California in the late 1850's.
Please ask for the AIPF "Tribal Pathways" directory. It will introduce you to the four levels of AIPF presentations and explain the fee chart that it is accompanied by.
Veteran Outreach Program
The Equinox -Agent Orange Flyer is a select base of public information that is available through our AIPF Program that is set up to assist the Vietnam Veteran with administrative tools that can help the Veteran re-enter the ever-growing process of Washington D. C. paperwork and state over-regulation and burdensome program guidelines.
By way of simple instructions AIPF will work with our Veterans in need. Many may have already been by-passed! Ruled ineligible. Told BVA will never hear your Claim for disability. The Agent Orange Veteran is entitled to a fair hearing and ruling on their Claim for Medical benefits and disability claims.
We are here to listen, and to guide you through the bureaucracy. Very simple when you think about it! What if we could get you back on your feet? File a new Claim and make the system work for you. The Veteran in need!
AIPF works with the Veterans that have been overlooked, overwhelmed and disappointed with the ways the federal bureaucracy can mislead and mishandle your claim. The Agent Orange Veteran has had to overcome major obstacles to secure an appointment to establish service connected benefits. This tier of unattainable benefits has somewhat been relieved under the recent congressional provisions contained in the Lejeune legislation.
Our mission is to provide the means necessary to cut through the Red Tape to better understand how todays Vietnam Veteran afflicted with Agent Orange can enter mainstream society and access services that they are entitled to without getting the run around.
AIPF through traditional means has made available an essential part of the Native American culture.
The Indian Sweat House that is readily accessible on Tribal Lands often remains out of reach by our elders, handicapped and homeless Veterans. Because of where the Veteran lives and under conditions that limit access because of something as simple as removing a travel/distance factor. The Portable Tribal Sweat House came as a vision of Chitcus during the recent Fire Storms that dramatically restricted travel and access to traditional Native Veterans housed at various treatment facilities throughout Northern California.
Master Redwood Carver George Wilson - a member of the Yurok Tribe and also a Vietnam Veteran. Advised Chitcus that he would construct A Portable Indian Sweat House for our Veterans.
