The National Day of Racial Healing is annual observance hosted by the W.K. Kellogg Foundation (WKKF) created with and builds on the work and learnings of the Truth, Racial Healing & Transformation (TRHT) community partners. Fundamental to this day is a clear understanding that racial healing is at the core of racial equity. This official day is observed every year on the Tuesday following Martin Luther King, Jr. Day.

Together with The Encouraging Place, Triangle MLK Committee, Raleigh Chamber, Wake County and Wake Together, the YMCA will co-host a local interactive gathering, open to the community, for the Kellogg Foundation’s National Day of Racial Healing. The event is sponsored by Wells Fargo.

The event at First Baptist Church is an opportunity to gather people to share dialogue and inspire action for a more equitable and just world.

The morning will feature continental breakfast, a keynote speaker and small group breakout sessions. Doors open and breakfast is available starting at 8 a.m. with the program beginning at 9 a.m.
