Indigenous Peoples Day

Indigenous Peoples Day is an opportunity to honor and celebrate the exceptional achievements and contributions of Indigenous People.

Indigenous communities were vital to Albuquerque's past and their role today is no less crucial, as they help to shape a more just and inclusive future for everyone.

So today, let’s come together to acknowledge the outstanding achievements, history, and diversity of Indigenous people, and recommit to forging an even brighter future for all people in Albuquerque. This bright future must include the fight to end homelessness which disproportionately affects Indigenous people.
