From classrooms to community cafes and cookouts, CRS is creating space for multi-generational unity, healing, and justice. On Juneteenth, we invite you to take a meaningful stride with us—“In Our Ancestors’ Footsteps”—as we honor the past, celebrate the present, and work together toward Black liberation.

We hope you join us for this powerful gathering filled with reflection, joy, and community. 

Let’s walk together, guided by those who came before us and inspired by the future we’re building.
