The Alaska Native Brotherhood and Alaska Native Sisterhood take great pride in the late Elizabeth Peratrovich, one of the finest Native leaders in state history.

The state designated February 16 as Elizabeth Peratrovich Day, and the ANB-ANS encourages all Alaskans to celebrate her remarkable life and her achievements in securing civil rights for all  people. Working through the ANB-ANS, she changed the state for all time.
