# DLA Distribution Commander delivers National American Indian Heritage Month message

By DLA Distribution Public Affairs

                NEW CUMBERLAND, Pa.  –              
November is National American Indian Heritage Month. This annual celebration is an opportunity for all of us to learn about and celebrate the rich history, culture, and contributions of Native Americans to our country. This year's theme is "Tribal Nations Soaring to New Heights." Throughout November, a variety of activities and resources will be available to promote a better understanding and appreciation of American Indian heritage.

To recognize and honor the significance of this month, please take a moment to read the attached newsletter created by DLA Distribution EEO. Additionally, I encourage everyone to participate in volunteer events that support organizations that work with American Indian communities, and perhaps share your stories if you have personal experiences, knowledge, or traditions related to American Indian heritage—your contribution will increase our understanding and appreciation.

As we participate in these activities, let us remember that National American Indian Heritage Month is not only about celebrating culture, but also about recognizing the challenges and issues that many American Indian communities still face today. By recognizing these challenges, we can work together to foster a more inclusive environment in our workplace and beyond. Together we can celebrate the diversity that makes our country stronger.

Thank you for your commitment to embracing the cultures and traditions that make our organization a diverse and vibrant workplace.

Mr. Knight and I would like to thank each and every one of you for your continued support to our Warfighters.
