November is Native American Heritage Month! This annual observance celebrates the rich cultures, traditions, and contributions of American Indian and Alaska Native (AI/AN) populations. It is also an opportunity to honor the legacy and stories of Tribal nations and Indigenous communities in the United States.

This year, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) Office of Minority Health (OMH) is observing Native American Heritage Month with the theme, Be the Source for Better Health: Improving AI/AN Health Outcomes Through Our Cultures, Communities, and Connections. The theme calls on each of us to better understand how unique environments, cultures, and histories (known as social determinants of health, or SDOH) impact AI/AN populations and their overall health.
