In this week’s Chickasaw Nation News, we have a story about how Jack and Wendell Pettigrew’s prized flutes and pipes were purchased by Dr. John Garber of Ada to be displayed at the Chickasaw Nation Medical Center. They said creating these works of art is their way of passing down their Chickasaw heritage.
In a second story, Chickasaw Nation Under Secretary of Mental Health Services Todd Crawford details how those with substance addiction are easy targets for scammers. He offers ways for individuals affected to obtain services to help.
