Office Closed: Juneteenth
Juneteenth marks the day in 1865 when enslaved Black people in Galveston, Texas, finally learned they were free, over two years after the Emancipation Proclamation. It is a day of remembrance, resistance, and celebration of Black freedom and joy.
We honor the legacy of those who fought for liberation, and recommit ourselves to building a future rooted in justice, equity, and collective care.
Please note our office will be closed in honor of Juneteenth.
