Did you know? On October 14, 2024, Pennsylvania recognizes both Indigenous Peoples' Day and Columbus Day on its state holiday calendar! Many states like Alaska, Hawaii, Maine, and Oregon officially celebrate Indigenous Peoples' Day instead of Columbus Day to honor the rich cultures and histories of Native Americans. It's also called First People's Day or Native American Day in other regions.
Today, the Harrisburg Housing Authority proudly celebrates the diverse Indigenous cultures and contributions that have shaped our nation.
In honor of this special day, our offices will be closed today. We'll resume regular business hours on Tuesday, October 15th.
Happy Indigenous Peoples' Day!
