November is Native American Heritage Month, a time to celebrate the rich cultures, histories, and contributions of Native American communities. It’s also an opportunity to reflect on the importance of honoring Indigenous knowledge, respecting their sovereignty, and supporting their future. Let’s continue to listen, learn, and and amplifying the voices of Native communities to foster meaningful action and connection.. #NativeAmericanHeritageMonth #DiversityandInclusion #WorkforceDevelopment #Community
