Happy Juneteenth!

On this 156th anniversary of Juneteenth, FCCPR celebrates the emancipation of African Americans, commemorates the end of slavery in the United States and welcomes June 19th as a federal and state holiday as it should certainly be. As welcome as this new holiday is, we must remember that there is still plenty of work to be done to eradicate racism from our society. We dedicate ourselves to that work.
