As we commemorate Juneteenth, the day marking the end of slavery in the United States, we are reminded of the ongoing journey towards true equality and justice. Affordable housing is a critical piece of this puzzle. The Legacy of Housing Inequality 🏠 : For too long, systemic racism has created barriers to affordable housing for Black communities. From redlining to discriminatory lending practices, the legacy of these injustices continues to impact families today. Juneteenth is not only a day to celebrate freedom but also a call to action. We must continue to advocate for policies that ensure equitable access to affordable housing. This includes supporting fair housing laws, increasing funding for affordable housing projects, and promoting inclusive community development. How You Can Help: Educate Yourself: Learn about the history of housing discrimination and its impact on Black communities. Advocate: Support local and national initiatives that aim to create affordable housing opportunities. Get Involved: Volunteer with organizations dedicated to housing justice and support efforts to create inclusive neighborhoods. We can honor the spirit of Juneteenth by working towards a future where everyone has a safe, affordable place to call home. #Juneteenth #AffordableHousing #HousingEquality #FairHousing #CommunityDevelopment

Our offices are closed today in observance of #Juneteenth, a pivotal day in American history. Also known as Freedom Day, Juneteenth commemorates the day in 1865 when enslaved African Americans in Galveston, Texas, were informed of their freedom - more than two years after the Emancipation Proclamation was signed. Juneteenth marks the end of slavery in the United States and serves as a profound symbol of freedom, resilience, and the ongoing fight for #equality. We recognize that equity is fundamental to social justice. Disparities disproportionately affect the Black community, resulting in higher rates of chronic diseases, lower life expectancy, and limited access to essential resources. As an organization, we are committed to fostering #inclusivity and #understanding while continuously working to improve access to #healthcare for all. Learn more by visiting https://lnkd.in/gqvPZFF

What is community justice? A community- first, person-centred approach tackling the root cause of behaviour. It teaches skills and increases self-worth, resulting in less crime being committed. By keeping people in the community and not isolated from society, they learn, they integrate, and they contribute. 👇
We’re pleased to launch a new short film to raise awareness about the benefits of community justice. Research shows that 70% of the public don't know what community justice is. We want to change that. Watch the 2-minute film YouTube and please share! ⬇️ https://lnkd.in/e6pq5r3g Created by The Union.

In 2024, May we empower communities enough so that they feel confident in raising their voices. May we be strong enough to unmask our intentions and priorities transparency. Lastly, I hope we will not merely consult and listen as a checkbox , but actively do so to include community voices in the design of our programs #letcommutieslead #empoweringcommunities #communityinvolvement #unmutecommunities
