As we celebrate #BlackHistoryMonth this February, we at CCH know that it's essential to reflect not only on the achievements and resilience of Black Americans throughout history, but also on the persistent challenges they face today. We know that due to structures of systemic racism, homelessness disproportionately affects Black Americans. In our city, Black Chicagoans make up more than half (53%) of the total population experiencing homelessness. Nationwide, Black Americans make up roughly 13% of the general population, but they account for 39% of people experiencing homelessness and more than 50% of families with children experiencing homelessness. To CCH, honoring Black communities means working towards a future where everyone has access to secure and stable housing, because housing is a human right.

If you're a white supervisor interested in deepening your anti-racist approach in a supportive peer space, register for our next offering of Liberatory Principles & Practices for White Supervisors on Tuesday, July 30th! https://lnkd.in/gu6z9wps We often think of our healing and liberation as a garden that blossoms and thrives because we tend to it. Now, what happens when the pesky invasive species of white supremacy culture are set on destroying it? In our Liberatory Principles & Practices for White Supervisors training, we invite white social justice and nonprofit leaders to engage in this metaphor as a way to unpack and uproot how the characteristics of saviorism and defensiveness might be showing up in their supervision practices.

RESPECT The Haven Community Development Corporation is collaborating with the Center For Transforming Communities on their public health initiative. Advocating for equitable public health policies and programs in communities of color to improve the physical, mental, spiritual and social well being of the black community. We are attending a powerful Measuring Love training. Basically asking how do you measure and show love to the black community. While going through this training I thought about the Black Code of Conduct that RESPECT The Haven CDC has adopted for our 95 percent Black community of Whitehaven. Dr. Claud Anderson, author of Powernomics, The National Plan To Empower Black America says every Black community should adopt a Code of Conduct. How we will love each other, care for each other and support each other. RESPECT The Haven CDC believes by following these rules of conduct we will grow in LOVE and RESPECT for one another. My question to you is how do you measure love?

The H3AL Network is a Black Advocacy group that takes an intersectional approach to collective healing.

Our mission is to empower the Black community and provide resources to foster positive community outcomes and growth.

Firstly, by acknowledging racism and the damage it does to people and communities. Second, by educating ourselves through the works and words of those whose shoulders we stand on. Fourth, we will create a map where there isn’t one, to guide us toward community healing.
