A Non-Profit Native American Organization Dedicated to South Carolina's American Indians

Welcome to the Carolina Indian Heritage Association web site.  We hope that you find our site informative and useful to you and your community. 
 
CIHA strives to work toward community improvement and revitalization through education, awareness, initiative, progress and training.  While we would like to improve each and every Indian community in South Carolina, we must first evaluate the foundation of problems we face that we feel need to be addressed or made known to others.  CIHA hopes that this site serves as a forum for South Carolina Indians to bring their problems, issues and concerns to view so that others will not feel excluded from society due to their ethnicity and/or religious belief(s).
 
We hope that you enjoy to our site.  If you have any questions/comments, or feel that we need to add or delete information on this site, please email us.
