What if changing the narrative started with you?
Too often, harmful stereotypes and biases shape the way we see each other—and even ourselves. Let’s change that.
Join our Healing Illinois Cafés this April for real, open conversations about dismantling negative narratives and replacing them with stories of empathy, respect, and healing. These sessions create space for parents and community members to explore how we can raise children with positive identities and build relationships that foster racial healing and equity.
April 23 | West40 | 415 Lexington Avenue Maywood, IL | 6:00-8:00 PM CST - https://bestrongfamilies-net.zoom.us/meeting/register/tc-7KK3ASUSeH6qpvlu0BA
