April is National Arab American Heritage Month, and we want to recognize the achievements, contributions, and rich heritage of Arab-Americans, especially for our friends and neighbors who call Oklahoma home. 

Arab-Americans, who can trace their roots to 22 countries in Southwest Asia and North Africa, have made countless contributions in a variety of fields, including government, business, healthcare, sciences, the arts, and more. 

Throughout the month, take time to support Arab-owned businesses, as well as enjoy books, research, and art created by Arab-Americans, and learn more about this month by visiting some of these sites:
