Take A Stand With YWCA Central Carolinas

Until Justice Just Is (previously known as Stand Against Racism) is an annual series of events held at YWCAs across the country that raises awareness about the negative impact of institutional and structural racism in our communities and build community among those who work for racial justice while providing opportunities to educate. 

According to Mental Health America, almost 40% of caregivers identify as Black, Indigenous, or People of Color (BIPOC). Within each BIPOC racial/ethnic group, the rates of caregiving are higher than in white demographics. This year’s Until Justice Just Is community panel and discussion will focus on caregiving in communities of color, the relevant cultural context associated with this practice and the necessity for radical change when it comes to the supportive services of both caretaker and those being cared for. It truly takes a village to not only care for a child but also the lives of those who may be experiencing short-term or long term limitations within our communities (Johns Hopkins Medicine). Join us on Wednesday, April 17th at 6PM at Caldwell Presbyterian Church for this impactful conversation with those in close proximity to the topic!
