Thank you To Write Love on Her Arms We’re honoring Juneteenth—a federal holiday created to celebrate June 19, 1865, when news of the 1863 Emancipation Proclamation reached enslaved people in Texas, marking the effective “end of slavery” in the United States.
Today is a day of celebration.
A day of healing.
A day of remembrance.
A day like today is just one moment to stop and recognize the 246 years of slavery on United States land and the impact it has had on Black mental health for generations. Healing is multifaceted, and we know that this generational trauma deserves proper attention and care. When we create space to collectively learn from the past and allow it to guide us into the future, community healing becomes possible.
