Each day, Native Women like our R2HF grantees work to lift up and support others. We believe that Native Women are at the foundations of strong communities, and without their guidance, hard work, care and strength, our communities weaken. When giving so much to others, we must remember the importance of also prioritizing our own mental health, well-being and self care.

Taking time to reset, recharge and heal can further support the ways and efforts in supporting those around us. How do you prioritize your mental health?

During this month's observance, help us sound the alarm on sexual assault awareness and prevention. Native Women experience incredibly high rates of sexual violence. Did you know, according to Amnesty International, American Indian/Alaska Native Women are 2.5 times more likely to be victims of sexual assault compared to the rest of the country? At R2HF, we continue to fight for our Indigenous communities and Native Women. Donate NOW at return2heart.org to join us in our mission. We must continue working to protect, support, uplift and seek justice for our matriarchs.

Today we recognize the wage gap between Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander women and white non-Hispanic men. 50 years of "trickle-down" economics have created record levels of income inequality. AANHPI women earned about 83¢ to every $1. Enough is enough. This day, we need leaders to support our communities and help us achieve livable, equitable wages.
