Support Critical Community Services with UAII this Giving Tuesday
This Giving Tuesday, millions of Americans are coming together to support ...
Tribe of the Month 🤎 Navajo Nation
The Diné people carry a deep connection to family, ceremony, and harmony with the natural world. From sacred teachings about balance to traditions passed through generations, Navajo culture reflects strength, resilience, and identity that continues to thrive today.
March is National Nutrition Month and we’re sharing Indigenous cookbooks that bring culture, flavor, and healing back to the table 📖🌱
These recipes are more than meals they carry stories, traditions, and the knowledge of our communities. From ancestral ingredients to modern Indigenous kitchens, every page is a reminder that our foodways are still here and still thriving.
At UAII, we believe wellness starts with what nourishes you physically, mentally, and culturally. Reconnecting with traditional foods is one way to take care of yourself and your family.
Save this list, try something new, and bring a little more culture into your kitchen this month 💛

A gift that echoes through time. 🍀
During the Great Irish Famine, the Choctaw Nation gave what they could to help Irish families facing unimaginable hardship. Generations later, that act of generosity still lives on, reminding us that compassion can cross oceans, cultures, and time.
Today, the Choctaw–Irish connection stands as a powerful example of solidarity and kindness that continues to inspire the world.
Happy St. Patrick’s Day. 💚
From plants and community spaces to the everyday moments that bring life and growth to our facilities, a little green always brightens the day. Wishing our community a safe and joyful day filled with good energy, connection, and maybe a little extra luck. 💚
