Indigenous Peoples and Native American Heritage Month

November

Indigenous Peoples and Native American Heritage Month

Join us in observing National Indigenous Peoples and Native American Heritage Month, Nov. 1 to Nov. 30. This month is set aside to honor Indigenous histories, perspectives and experiences.

We recognize the Native Nations—the Chippewa (Ojibwe/Ojibwa), Ottawa (Odawa), Potawatomi/Pottawatomi, Huron and others—and historic Indigenous communities in Michigan. This month allows us to spread awareness about Native nations and seek greater understanding of the challenges facing Native Americans today.
