This November, we’re excited to celebrate Native American Heritage Month! It’s a time to honor the rich cultures, traditions, and incredible contributions of Native people in shaping our communities, including here at JEVS. 

At JEVS, our commitment to Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Employee Well-being (DEIW) is what drives our culture. Celebrating Native American Heritage Month is part of that dedication, reminding us of the importance of creating a workplace where everyone feels valued, safe, and supported. It’s not just about honoring the past—it’s about how we use that history to build a better, more inclusive future together. 

This year’s theme, “Bridging Histories, Shaping Our Future,” encourages us to reflect on the lessons of the past and how we can apply them to shape a more connected and supportive workplace. It also ties directly into our ongoing focus on psychological safety—making sure everyone feels comfortable sharing their thoughts and experiences. 

Here’s How this Theme Inspires Us to Take Action 

  • Focus on building bridges. By learning from the past, we can create connections that ensure every voice is heard and respected. 

  • Celebrate diverse experiences. Let’s create spaces where we can share our stories and learn from each other, celebrating the different perspectives we all bring. 

  • Empower future generations. By understanding our shared history, we can pave the way for a more inclusive, equitable future for everyone. 

Let’s take this opportunity to come together, honor Native American communities, and continue to build a workplace where everyone feels they belong and can thrive.
