Yes, and definitely not "still". Sacagawea and the Presidential series of dollar coins are in production today and are struck at the Denver and Philadelphia mints. Proof coins of both types are struck at the San Francisco mint. The West Point mint in New York produces only gold and silver bullion coins that are notplaced into circulation.

Hundreds of millions are made each year for circulation use. They're legal tender and must be accepted by all businesses. They're also in heavy use by many transit system fareboxes. The US Mint would like the coins to be the only form of $1 currency produced because they're much less expensive than printing $1 bills. However, public inertia and a strong lobbying effort by the paper industry have prevented that from happening.

MoreSacagawea dollars have been made since 2000

Starting in 2007 the Mint is also striking Presidential dollars. Four different designs are released each year, featuring portraits of all presidents in the order they served. Any large bank should be able to provide all you want to buy.
