The Catawba Nation
of South Carolina is opening a technology center at its longhouse on the reservation.
The center will help tribal members earn their GEDs. It will also provide work-skills training and small business assistance.
The center is being funded by Hope and Harmony for Humanity, a grant program aimed at improving technology access and training in Indian Country. The Blackfeet Nation of Montana, the Leech Land Band of Ojibwe in Minnesota, the Tigua Tribe of Texas and the Houlton Band of Maliseet Indians in Maine have established similar centers.
