We champion the vision of a united community where every person can thrive free from racial prejudice. Since 1989, our mission has been steadfast: to disrupt the cycle of racism by addressing how racism is transmitted in society and fostering healing through impactful education and dialogue.
We acknowledge that racism is a pervasive ailment with deep roots in our society. It is transmitted through systems, institutions, and interpersonal relations, often inadvertently perpetuating the cycle of hurt. At our center, healing is not just an act but a journey. Our purpose is to mend the wounds caused by racism by empowering individuals to identify and challenge racial biases within themselves and their communities.
