2020 brought much change to many communities across the country, and indeed the world, but none so more than Indian Country. From the Washington Football Team dropping their long-challenged name to the nomination of the first Native American to Department of the Interior, there were always amazing news stories for Running Strong to update weekly. We thank you for your continued support throughout this year and are excited to move into the new year with you.
Native American tribes act to keep their elders safe with CARES act fund, Navajo Nation turns out record voter support, read back on one of the most brilliant military minds in history, and more in this year’s final News You Can Use!
