This Thursday, June 19, we celebrate and honor Juneteenth – the day freedom finally reached all enslaved people in the United States. Juneteenth is a powerful reminder of resilience, a demand for justice, and the ongoing fight for equity for all.
Legal aid changes lives. We are committed to breaking down barriers, challenging injustice in the legal system, and continuing our efforts to provide free legal help to all marginalized communities.
We’ve assembled a list of ways to commemorate and engage across Washington State. Explore our list of celebrations, markets, and educational resources below.
