Our Mission is to use sports as a tool to improve the health, wellness, and independence of Native Americans with disabilities.

In 2015 Noah Blue Elk Hotchkiss founded the Tribal Adaptive Organization with help from Olympic Legend Billy Mills.  Today we work to encourage other Natives with disabilities to find a path towards a successful independent life through Adaptive Sports.

Through media and engagement with Tribes and Urban Tribal Communities we seek to help find resources and opportunities to access equipment and training to pursue any level of Athletic achievement an individual desires.

To Celebrate our 4th year as a 501(c)(3) we are striving to build our base of friends and donors. Our goal is to have 400 friends commit to a small monthly donation of $20 each. This small gesture of many people putting their hearts behind us will almost double our operating budget and provide meaningful resources for individuals who are operating on the margins of the margin! We can do this!
