Juneteenth serves as a time for reflection, celebration, and continued advocacy for equality and justice. It highlights our ongoing journey towards a more equitable society and encourages all of us and our communities to actively participate in this pursuit.

Juneteenth became a federal holiday on June 17, 2021, when the Juneteenth National Independence Day Act was signed into law.
