National American Indian and Alaska Native Heritage Month

The Indian Health Service is recognizing National American Indian and Alaska Native Heritage Month in November. This year’s theme, “Sovereignty is Sacred: Sharing our Rights and Cultures,” presents an opportunity to educate the public about the proud history of Indigenous people in America, and to celebrate the rich and diverse tribal cultures that continue to thrive throughout Indian Country. The IHS remains committed to supporting sovereignty and resilience in tribal communities year-round.
