| Ruzicka
Associates has worked with several Indian Tribes in
California and Nebraska. The firm has a long history in
recognizing Tribal Community need for upgrading of
housing and creating economic development. We also
recognize the need to provide education, recreation and
cultural opportunities for youths and adults. Ruzicka
Associates recognizes that Indian Tribes have unique
properties and a timely opportunity to improve conditions
for Tribal members with profits from Indian gaming. We
can help implement strategic vision and effectively
interact with Tribal members. Recent Native American
