Happy National Native American Heritage Month! โค๏ธ

November is National Native American Heritage Month (NNAHM), honoring American Indian and Alaska Natives (AI/AN)โ€™s diverse cultures, traditions, history, and societal contributions. This month provides an opportunity to educate about Native Americans, their unique challenges and barriers, and the impact of historical trauma, like colonization and genocide, on their communities.

We're taking a closer look at the Indigenous connection to Maslowโ€™s Hierarchy of Needs. Abraham Maslow, one of the founders of humanistic psychology, โ€œgenerously borrowed from the Blackfoot people to refine his motivational theory on the hierarchy of needs.โ€ To learn more about this, follow the link below.
