Today, Chief Chuck Hoskin, Jr. signed a proclamation declaring June 2024 as Pride Month in the Cherokee Nation, a historic first recognition. Here at the Cherokee Nation we emphasize love, inclusivity, admiration and fairness of all-- without conditions. 🌈🏳️🌈❤️



The AMA now recognizes the significance of the land-grant university system and the Indian trust responsibility as part of their health equity and advocacy work. In 2024, OSU Center for Health Sciences at Cherokee Nation graduated their first class of doctors. @DrBray Chief Chuck Hoskin, Jr.
