The First Step

WE ARE COMMITTED TO LEARNING AND GROWING IN THE AREA OF RACIAL JUSTICE. BELOW IS A GROWING LIST OF RESOURCES CURATED BY OUR LEADERSHIP TEAM. 


Inclusion on this list does not imply our leadership’s agreement with every idea presented by these resources. Rather, these are resources we’ve found to be helpful, challenging, and worth exploring. Learning is a great first step toward seeking justice and reconciliation.
