The Boys & Girls Club of the Poarch Creek Indians (the BGC) was the first Native American Boys & Girls Club in the state of Alabama, established in 2011. Our Mission is to enable young people to reach their full potential as productive, caring, responsible citizens. The BGC does this by providing a safe environment for children ages 6—18 to learn and have fun after school and during the summer. At BGC we serve children who are Tribal Citizens, First or Second Generation, and children of employees who work in Tribal Government.

The goal of the Family Services Department is to promote the health, social, and emotional well-being of individual Poarch Creek Indians (PCI) Tribal Citizens and their families, and for members of other federally-recognized tribes residing within the designated service area for PCI. Programs such as day care assistance and protection for Tribal children through the Indian Child Welfare Act provide much needed help for the Tribe and its citizens.
The Family Services Department also oversees our Senior Services Department. The Senior Services Department is all about keeping our Tribal and community seniors involved in activities that keep their minds and bodies active.
Transportation
There are limited employees available to provide transportation for PCI Tribal Citizens, with preference being given to those aged 55 and older, disabled or have a chronic medical condition requiring frequent treatments (example: dialysis or cancer treatments) and need assistance with traveling to scheduled appointments with medical providers. Patients must reside within the five-county service area (Escambia, Monroe, Baldwin, Mobile, Alabama, and Escambia, Florida) to be eligible for transportation. Patients are required to provide a 72-hour notice to the Transportation Department in order to ensure that appropriate preparations can be made, with the exception of emergencies and extenuating circumstances. Patients who reside within a 30-mile radius of the PCI Health Department can be picked up and brought to the Health Department for services. Tribal Citizens who reside further away than a 30-mile radius will be responsible for obtaining their own transportation to the Health Department. Contact the Health Department to obtain transportation services.
