We share condolences for the passing of former ANA Commissioner Lynn Engles and offer our gratitude for his lifelong services to Native people and communities.

Beyond Native American Heritage Month, we are reminded of the strength and determination of our relatives to usher in a new era of tribal self-determination. Thank you for celebrating with ANA.

On this day in 2008, Congress declared the Friday after Thanksgiving as “Native American Heritage Day,” commemorating the rich and vibrant culture of Native American, Alaska Native, Native Hawaiian and Pacific Islander Communities.
