November is Native American Heritage Month. The American Indian Program at Scottsdale Community College (SCC) invites you to engage in a series of cultural activities that celebrate and honor Indigenous traditions, resilience, and community. This is a time to come together, recognize the richness of Native cultures, and support each other in continuing our shared journey of learning and growth.
