November is Native American Heritage Month, also known as National American Indian Heritage Month. It is a time to celebrate the traditions, languages and stories of Native American, Alaska Native, Native Hawaiian, and affiliated Island communities and ensure their histories and contributions continue to thrive with each passing generation.  Join us in celebrating the rich history, the variety of cultures, and the many contributions of the First Americans to the world.
