BEND, Ore. (KTVZ) -- It's Indigenous Peoples’ Day, recognizing the cultures, histories and contributions of Native American and tribal communities.

Here in Central Oregon, it’s a chance to honor Indigenous students, families and community members, along with generations of people who have cared for the land we call home.

The day also encourages people to learn about and celebrate Indigenous traditions, cultures and contributions — not just today, but year-round.
