Their mission encompasses various initiatives, including exhibitions, oral histories, and educational outreach, to highlight experiences from 1885 to the present.

JAHSSD also promotes local BIPOC history through events like guided bike rides that celebrate the contributions of Black Indigenous People of Color in the region.
