On this Native American Heritage Day, we want to express our respect and gratitude for the resilience, culture and contributions of Native American communities, especially in the context of the vital work being done to address HIV and health disparities.

We recognize the importance of addressing systemic inequities that impact the health and well-being of Native American individuals and communities. Your commitment to this cause is a powerful testament to the value of culturally responsive care, advocacy and support.

Today, we honor the history and traditions of Native American peoples while reaffirming our dedication to health equity and justice. Thank you for your leadership and continued efforts to make a meaningful difference.
