Celebrating Juneteenth

Celebrate Juneteenth by becoming more informed about bias and historical trauma.

Juneteenth is observed on June 19, every year, and is the oldest known celebration of the end of slavery in America. It commemorates June 19, 1865, the day that Union soldiers arrived in Galveston, Texas, to tell enslaved African Americans that they were free, under the terms of the 1862 Emancipation Proclamation.

The day is also a reminder of the work that remains to be done for racial justice and equality.

Below you will find some available classes that can help spread awareness of racial justice and equality. These class selections are not exhaustive. Becoming more trauma-informed will always help to spread compassion for others.
