Native American History Month
November 27, 2023
This month is for celebrating the achievements of Native American/Alaska Natives and uplifting their needs. This year, we highlight the pervasiveness of #GBV among Indigenous women and girls and YWCA’s work to support survivors.
Gender-Based Violence
Indigenous women and girls experience Gender-Based Violence at higher rates than any other racial or ethnic group. We celebrate the work our sisters at YWCA Billings do in their community. Watch the video to learn more
