November is dedicated to celebrating rich and diverse cultures and traditions as well as acknowledging the important contributions of Native people.
At Running Strong for American Indian Youth® we support cultural and language preservation programs that embrace traditions throughout Indian Country and increase self-esteem among Native youth.
This month, we’ll be sharing how Native Americans today are embracing their histories and cultures and are contributing to sports, the arts, politics, and so much more, creating new legacies for the next generation.
National Native American Heritage Month provides the opportunity for us to educate the general public about tribal life, life as a Native American today, and to raise a general awareness about the unique challenges Native people and Native communities have faced both historically and in the present.
