Native American Heritage Month
November is Native American Heritage Month, or as it is commonly referred to, American Indian and Alaska Native Heritage Month.
November is a time to celebrate the rich diversity of cultures, traditions, and histories of Native peoples and to honor their significant contributions. Native American Heritage Month also provides an opportunity to foster understanding and build awareness of tribal communities, their unique challenges—both past and present—and the resilience and strength of Native peoples in overcoming these challenges.
