In St. Cloud, CentraCare is hosting weekly 'Community Conversations' focused on topics such as Black love, mental health, and financial literacy to foster relationships within the Black community. Meanwhile, the Office of Intercultural Engagement and Belonging at ACU has organized events under the theme 'Ujima', emphasizing collective responsibility and unity among students and faculty. AHN Saint Vincent and Allegheny Health Network also kicked off their celebrations with events highlighting local Black history and community contributions, featuring displays and performances from local students. St. Clair Catholic schools launched a resource portal for educators to promote learning about Black Canadian history, complemented by a panel discussion featuring local Black professionals. These initiatives reflect a broader commitment to education, inclusion, and community engagement throughout Black History Month.
