A Native Prescription: Balancing Mind, Body & Spirit

American Indian Heritage Month 2006 - "The Gifts of Mother Earth"

In 1986, President Reagan designated November 23-30 as American Indian Week. Four years later, President Bush proclaimed the first National American Indian Heritage Month. Each year since, U.S. Presidents have proclaimed November as American Indian Heritage Month.  NRCS celebrates American Indian Heritage Month in November. As part of this celebration, an American Indian Tribe artist is chosen each year to develop a poster. This year’s poster entitled “A Native American Journey through Time: The Trust and the Stewardship” is designed by S. Denise Housley of the Georgia Tribe Eastern Cherokee.
