Introducing the 13 Moons Challenges and the First Challenge

Manido Giizis (Spirit Moon) is waning, and it is time to talk about the 13 Moons Challenges program for 2022.

The Community Health program has been working with the Gijigowi Anishinaabemowin Language Department and have a good plan for this new year. With each new moon, we will invite you to participate in a health and wellness challenge. If you choose not to participate, perhaps you can write your own challenge for that moon.

Did you start the new year with resolutions to eat better, or to take better care of yourself? How are you progressing? The 13 Moons Challenges can help you! Each moon we will sponsor a challenge, with small prizes for those who participate and share their successes with us.

Please open the attachments below for the Manido Giizis Challenge! We have included a section on food and some recipes, too.
