Juneteenth is celebrated on June 19th each year and marks the famous day in 1865 when the enslaved people of Texas learned they were finally free, a full two years after the Emancipation Proclamation was delivered by President Lincoln. Juneteenth symbolizes the hard fought end of slavery in the United States. The holiday is a time for modern Americans to reflect on the struggles of African Americans throughout our history and to celebrate their culture and progress. In recent years, Juneteenth has been recognized as a federal holiday, promoting freedom and America's ongoing journey towards equality. Century Park Associates prides itself on the cultivation of a diverse workforce, and in this regard, Juneteenth holds special significance. Celebrating Juneteenth acknowledges the diverse histories and contributions of all within our communities, reinforcing the company’s commitment to diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging, and enhancing our sense of unity and family. Recognizing Juneteenth educates and enriches us all, creating more knowledgable and empathetic associates, and a thriving, respectful, and cohesive workplace. #CenturyParkCares #Juneteenth #DEIB #CenturyParkAssociates
