Native American Heritage Month

The Indian Health Service recognizes Native American Heritage Month in November. This month 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. Today, Native American cultures are alive and evolving within cities, rural communities, tribal communities, and nations across the United States. This month, let’s all celebrate the traditions, languages and stories of Native people and ensure their rich histories and contributions can live on with each passing generation.
