INDIGENOUS PEOPLES’ DAY 
RESOURCES
 
mark your calendar
Indigenous Peoples’ Day is our opportunity to connect with those who have stewarded and protected this land for centuries and continue to do so today.
 
Indigenous Peoples’ Day is commemorated on the second Monday in October, and one of the best things we can do to celebrate is learn more about the history of Indigenous folks. We've split these resources into ones you'll use to educate yourself, ones to share with kiddos and a challenge for you to keep the learning going.
