Webinar 5: Thriving in the Midst: Grounding and Uplifting Our Babies, Children, Families, and Communities

Join us as we come together to reaffirm Black Joy and Excellence. We will discuss how, together, we can continue to foster the brilliance and resilience of Black infants, children, families, and communities. We recognize that Black Joy radiates from within – our hearts, minds, soul, and spirit. Our conversation will highlight the many ways Black Joy keeps our children healthy, safe, culturally grounded, protected, and, most importantly, loved.
