Nimkee Memorial Wellness Center went PINK on Friday, October 21, 2016 in honor of the "Indigenous Pink Day".  This breast cancer awareness campaign is focused on bringing education and screening awareness to the American Indian/ Alaska Natives men and women. The goal of Indigenous Pink Day is to educate all indigenous people on the importance of early detection and remind men and women to keep up to date on their screenings.  By wearing pink today you are supporting your tribal community in a positive way and reminding everyone that it is important to be proactive about your health and receive your yearly health screenings. For those who are technology savvy.. you can share a picture of yourself on social media wearing pink using #indigenouspink.
